He is part of the wave of violent effects of reducing Trump’s federal expenditures and suppressing Dei.
Emily Brown has been a volunteer consultant for a long time and knows that the departure of the money is often a holiday or hunger. But what could not prepare for it was the dissolution of the federal institutions that provided most of their work.
In February, it lost all the contracts of 2025—a waveful impact of President Donald Trump’s government to connect government expenditures and reduce US aid.
Because he owns his own affairs, Brown is not worthy of unemployment. He had to take two semi-operations from individual sales and as a diversing trainer in the field of diving to pay initial expenses such as rent.
“I have to support myself,” said Brown, who lives in K West, Florida. “I haven’t worked since the age of 21 except any industry except foreign policies and assistance.
Brown is one of thousands of American workers at home and abroad whose lives have ended with 90 days of foreign aid, 83 percent of the International Development Agency’s programs, and the stomach of nearly 10,000 US employees.
The White House and Elon Musk offices say the moves have put forward “US interests” and reduce wasted expenditures, while opponents of the US administration’s actions are raising alarms that the United States is suspending a global impact on China.
“President Trump is serving the American people, not government contractors who want to create taxpayers through DII and other programs that do not fit the first US agenda,” White House Deputy Minister Anna Kelly told Business Insider. “It will implement policies that will increase the growth of the private sector, raising small businesses and equality of playing grounds for US companies on the world stage.
Administration and Doge have been forced by force to challenge the closure of USAID and efforts to reduce the federal labor force. While the fate of the United States is playing in stadiums, Brown’s professional path is in an uncertain situation.
Dei work is dry
The 39-year-old has been working in the field of international development for more than ten years and is an expert in gender equality and social universality.
He listed the three deals for 2025, a total of about $63,000, by USAID and The Millenium Challenge Corporation, an independent foreign aid agency that provides low-income countries to boost economic growth, reduce poverty and corruption.
Since the end of January, the work stood — according to documents reviewed by Business Insider, Brown’s expected revenues zero.
Brown shared emails that showed that his contract with a USAID was expired until February Brown was appointed in Albania, who will try to join the European Union and Ghana by 2030. He was supposed to travel to Albania and conduct gender analysis to see who has the most weaknesses for corruption or exploitation when orders to be stopped.
Brown said he had not paid the money he had completed in January and published a factor that shows that he owes about $3,700, which is worth a month by a USAID partner.
Emails show that two more Brown contracts with Millenium Challenge comes at a time when they are reviewed by the Trump administration. Brown was supposed to investigate the obstacles that girls, women, people with disabilities and others face in access to secondary education in Timor List and Gambia. The study helps MCC plans to invest in possibilities in these countries.
“My expertise is in gender equality and social comprehensive,” Brown said. “What means what it means in international development programs is to ensure that US funding programs reach the most necessary and in danger. It is generally women, children and people with disabilities.
Brown said the Biden administration’s attention to equality has created many opportunities for consulting services. But after Trump won the election, he began to see that. Even if MCC investors move forward, Brown said he was concerned that his expertise would no longer be necessary because the Trump administration would eradicate diversity, equality and comprehensive initiatives throughout the federal government.
“At the end of 2024, the organizations would start with a little more alert,” Brown said. “Then after the elections, much more careful than how to invest money from advisors with gender expertise and universality.
Brown said a few weeks after the drying of his contracts were dark. In King West, many workers do not rely on the federal government like him, so few people understand the concern he feels. It also feels afraid of the future because Trump and Dodge are targeting civil society organizations that are not in line with their agenda. He described it as “authoritarian.
“It wasn’t until I started leaving the boat, at least once or twice a week in front of the sun and the water I started feeling slightly better emotionally and physically,” Brown said. “I’m still drowning in my free days.
