The USAID awards the Trump administration killed — and kept

The Trump administration has shared documents with the U.S. Congress containing what appears to be a complete list of all 5,341 terminated USAID programs — along with 898 that are still active.

The documents reveal the administration has terminated 86% of programs from the U.S. Agency for International Development — marginally more than the 83% reported on March 10 by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

In total, the document contains details of the termination of programs worth $75.9 billion. Of that total, $48.2 billion was already obligated, which means those funds were assigned or committed, but not necessarily paid out to an implementing organization. This leaves some $27.7 billion from these terminated programs with money yet to be obligated.
