On January 20, 2025, President Trump
signed Executive Order (E.O.) 14169, Reevaluating and Realigning
United States Foreign Aid, in which he directed all department and
agency heads with responsibility for foreign development and
assistance programs to review each foreign assistance program
within 90 days of the order and decide whether to continue, modify,
or cease each foreign assistance program. Any paused programs can
resume prior to the end of the 90-day period if the Secretary of
State, in consultation with the OMB Director, decide to continue
the program in the same or modified form. On the same day,
President Trump invoked sections 201 and 301 of the National
Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) declaring a national
emergency at the southern border of the United States and signed
Executive Order 14157 (E.O.) Designating Cartels and Other
Organizations as Foreign Terrorist Organizations and Specially
