USAID: The judge allows Donald Trump’s administration to take thousands of USAID employees take off

President of the United States Donald Trump

District Judge of the United States Carl Nichols On Friday he gave green light to the president of the United States Donald TrumpAdministration administration will eliminate thousands of USAID employees of their positions in the United States and worldwide. The ruling allows most USAID employees to be fired, and only a few continue.
Nichols at first refused to extend his temporary blockade in motion. The judge explained that the alleged injuries in the lawsuit, presented by the unions on behalf of the USAID workers, arise from the existing contracts of the employees with the agency. This, he argued, means that the matter must be resolved under federal employment laws instead of in the District Court.
According to the administration plan, USAID workers parked abroad would have only 30 days to return to the United States at the expense of the government. In addition, the plan would result in getting the staff out of both the United States and abroad. Critics, including unions that represent staff, claim that these measures have led to dangerous and uncertain conditions for those who work in high -risk areas.
The demand details workers who are stranded in volatile regions. A member of the USAID staff, who anonymously publishes from an unleashed African country, said: “Everyone says I need to wait and see what happens” as he faced complications with high blood pressure during a pregnancy in the late stage.
In another case, a pregnant spouse was hemorrhage in a foreign hospital bed. Her husband said that an American senator had to intervene to ensure medical evacuation. However, doctors declared that the intervention was too late for her to travel safely to the United States.
Concerns about the administration’s approach for emergency communications have also been raised. Initially, Judge Nichols expressed a deep concern for employees who remained abroad without adequate access to rescue measures amid political violence, such as Congo. However, he later pointed out that he had been reassured by the promise of the administration that these workers would still have access to bidirectional radios and a telephone application with a “panic button.” According to Nichols, “the risk raised for USAID employees who are placed on administrative license while being parked abroad, if any, is much more than it initially appeared.”
Critics of Trump administration He argues that the proposed cuts are part of a broader plan to close Usaid completely. The administration has affirmed that the agency’s work is wasteful and misaligned with the president’s agenda, although no evidence has been provided to support this claim. In addition to mass jobs cuts, the plan has also involved a freezing funds that affected essential programs. According to reports, the initiatives to save lives, including Pepfar, the president’s emergency plan for AIDS relief, and an Ebola outbreak response in Uganda, are hindered by these measures.
In addition, USAID workers still parked abroad have described chaotic conditions, and many left to deal with problems such as unpaid electricity bills and the growing hotel expenses after being evacuated from dangerous situations.
