The U.S. government is undergoing major changes under President Donald Trump.
His administration has been focused on cutting down bureaucracy and reshaping federal agencies.
Now, a new executive order has been signed to eliminate several government bodies, reports Ukrinform.
This move is part of a broader effort to restructure the federal system and reduce what the president sees as unnecessary institutions.
According to a statement released on March 14, the executive order targets seven agencies.
The list includes the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, the U.S. Agency for Global Media, the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, the Institute of Museum and Library Service, the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness, the Community Development Financial Institutions Foundation, and the Minority Business Development Agency.
One of the most significant cuts is the U.S. Agency for Global Media, which oversees media outlets like Radio Liberty and Voice of America.
These organizations have long played a role in U.S. foreign policy by broadcasting news and information worldwide.
Their closure raises questions about how the U.S. will handle global media influence moving forward.
Each of the agencies on the list must now submit a report on how they plan to implement the order.
They have seven days to do so. The Office of Management and Budget will oversee this process.
This decision is part of a larger effort by the Trump administration to reshape the government.
Over the past months, hundreds of civil servants have been removed or replaced. The goal is to streamline operations and bring in officials who align with the president’s vision.
Much of this restructuring is happening through the Department of Government Efficiency, which is led by billionaire Elon Musk.
His department has played a central role in reducing the federal workforce and cutting government programs.
The administration's push for change is not stopping here. On March 10, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that the U.S. will close 83% of programs under the Agency for International Development (USAID).
This marks another major shift in how the U.S. government operates, with long-term effects still unclear.
