All USAID humanitarian work around the world has effectively stopped, current and former officials say.

Scores of career USAID workers living abroad are also seeing their lives turned upside down.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Tuesday pushed back on nongovernmental organizations saying aid programs remained paused despite the waiver.

"How do you leave when you have not just family, not just school-age kids -- you have pets, you have things, you don't have a home to go back to, and you have a mission that you believe in and that you've supported for decades ?" the official said. "And it's just the rug pulled under you.".
