The department would eliminate a bureau overseeing #democracy & #HumanRights issues; one that handles #refugees & #migration; & another that works with international organizations. The under secretary position overseeing the first two bureaus would be cut. So would the office of the under secretary of public #diplomacy & public affairs.

The department would also get rid of the position of the special envoy for #climate.

The Bureau for #Humanitarian Assistance would absorb the remnants of the #USAID, which has been gutted over the last two months by #MarcoRubio & other members of the #Trump admin.

As for personnel, the memo said, the department needs to move from its “current outdated & disorganized generalist global rotation model to a smarter, strategic, regionally specialized career service framework to maximize expertise.”
