Secretary of State Marco Rubio's directive indicates a transfer of control of foreign assistance programs to the State Department. This move affects thousands of USAID personnel globally and follows a significant reduction of 83% of USAID's programs initiated earlier. The decision, which raises concerns about the future of U.S. foreign aid, comes amid an overall effort to streamline government operations under the National Security Decision Directive 38.
