Abstract: 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 Designated Global Terrorists
