[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry to my USAID colleagues. I’ve worked with many of you in the past and you all were examples of true commitment to public service. And that is unfortunately why you are being targeted. These people know nothing of service to others. I hope a suit is filed soon.[/quote]

Yes, I echo this. My husband worked in international relief for over a decade and the people are just the best people. So passionate about helping those less fortunate around the world respond to devastating natural disasters and other crises. My father worked with the Ford Foundation alongside the very first group of Peace Corps volunteers in India in the 1960s. It is not a glamorous life anymore.

Does anyone know what will happen to the Peace Corps? Is it in the State Dept? My daughter is heading to college next year and was hoping to become a PCV afterwards.  [/quote]

+1  I’m so sorry for all the dedicated people at USAID and NGOs who are being targeted. You have many many supporters who understand and appreciate all the good you do in the world. The US will only suffer as a result of this blow to foreign assistance, from weakened national security to diseases that will reach our shores. Even if you think only of the US and not the millions abroad who will die as a result, it is lunacy.  [/quote]
