State Department layoffs: Rallies in DC after 1,300 people were fired

The State Department is laying off more than 1,300 employees Friday. The Trump administration has pushed to reshape American diplomacy and worked aggressively to shrink the size of the federal government. The department is sending layoff notices to 1,107 civil servants and 246 foreign service officers with domestic assignments in the United States, a senior State Department official told The Associated Press. In late May, the State Department notified Congress of an updated reorganization plan, proposing cuts to programs beyond what had been revealed earlier by Rubio and an 18% reduction of staff in the U.S., even higher than the 15% initially floated in April. The restructuring has been driven in part by the need to find a new home for the remaining functions of USAID, which was an early target of the Trump administration and then-aide Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency.
