BURLINGTON, Vt. — Bonnie Glick, former deputy administrator at the U.S. Agency for International Development, wants to make sure President-elect Joe Biden’s team has a clear picture of the agency’s successes and challenges — even if she is not officially designated to share them.
Glick, currently a senior adviser at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, was fired by the White House last month after refusing to resign.
In March, the White House passed over Glick and chose John Barsa, head of the USAID Latin America bureau, to serve as acting administrator after USAID chief Mark Green stepped down. Her abrupt dismissal eight months later allowed Barsa to assume her title and retain his leadership of the agency in the face of a legal limit on the length of his tenure.
