State Dept overhaul will cut thousands of jobs, push 'Western values'
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Trump administration on Thursday formally notified Congress of its plans for a major overhaul of the State Department, which will cut thousands of jobs, refocus the agency's human rights bureau on "Western values" and reorient the refugee bureau toward returning migrants to their countries of origin.
The shake-up comes as part of an unprecedented push by President Donald Trump to shrink the federal bureaucracy and align what remains with his "America First" priorities.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who first announced the reorganization in April, said the State Department had taken into account lawmakers' feedback on the plan, designed to scale back a department he said had grown in terms of bureaucracy and costs without delivering results.
"The reorganization plan will result in a more agile Department, better equipped to promote Americas interests and keep Americans safe across the world," Rubio said in a statement.
