The Trump administration has presented a plan to dramatically cut staffing worldwide for U.S. aid projects as part of its dismantling of the U.S. Agency for International Development.

The proposal would leave fewer than 300 workers out of 8,000 direct hires and contractors. That’s about a 96 percent cut.
