Trump Signs Order Dismantling Several More Federal Agencies

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday aimed at eliminating seven federal agencies, including those focusing on media, libraries, museums, and efforts to end homelessness.

The president directed the targeted entities “be eliminated to the maximum extent consistent with applicable law,” insisting they “reduce the performance of their statutory functions and associated personnel.” It required the heads of each entity to submit a report to the Office of Management and Budget confirming full compliance within seven days, The Hill reported.

The president targeted several organizations, including the U.S. Agency for Global Media—the parent organization of Voice of America (VOA)—the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars at the Smithsonian Institution, a prominent think tank, and the Institute of Museum and Library Services, which provides support to libraries, archives, and museums nationwide.

He also dismantled multiple agencies: the United States Interagency Council on Homelessness, which works to prevent and end homelessness; the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, focused on avoiding and resolving labor disputes; the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund, aimed at expanding economic opportunities for underserved communities;

and the Minority Business Development Agency, which promotes growth among minority-owned businesses, The Hill added.
