USAID is also resuming &#8220;voluntary Agency-funded return travel&#8221; for impacted employees overseas, according to the email.<\/p>\n<p>USAID employs more than 10,000 people, according to the Congressional Research Service, with around 4,800 direct hires stationed in foreign and domestic posts.<\/p>\n<p>Per the email, approximately 2,000 personnel in duty stations across the U.S. will also be subject to a reduction in force.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>USAID had previously deemed 611 workers as essential amid an <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/usaid-missions-overseas-ordered-shutdown-by-friday\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">initial attempt earlier this month<\/a><\/span> to place the majority of direct hires on leave. But a judge, in response to a lawsuit brought by two unions representing USAID employees, had ordered the agency to temporarily reinstate some 2,100 personnel who had previously been placed on leave while blocking the administration from placing another 2,000 or so on leave. U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, who was appointed by President Trump, also put a stay on orders for overseas personnel to return home.<\/p>\n<p>However, Nichols on Friday <span class=\"link\"><a

noopener\">26-page decision<\/a>, Nichols said the potential harm asserted by the unions did not warrant emergency relief.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Plaintiffs have presented no irreparable harm they or their members are imminently likely to suffer from the hypothetical future dissolution of USAID,&#8221; Nichols wrote, adding that those placed on leave still have the ability to go through the standard process of bringing their concerns before the government body for employee complaints.<\/p>\n<p>While the lift on the stay allows the Trump administration to place USAID workers on leave, a ruling in a separate lawsuit brought by a group of nonprofit organizations and contractors that received funding for foreign aid projects is still preventing the administration from pausing foreign aid, grants and contracts previously appropriated by Congress while legal proceedings continue.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"content__meta--contributors\">\n      <em><\/p>\n<p>                                  <a
