Trump administration stalling medical evacuation for USAID staffers, spouses in peril, suits charge.

Trump administration has stalled medical evacuations for as many as 25 , a source says.

The administration says it is taking all required care of staffers as it terminates USAID programs and aims to recall thousands of workers.

A judge is set to decide Friday whether to keep the staffing moves on hold.

Staffing cuts also have reduced some of the U.S. disaster-response teams for earthquakes and other global crises, a former senior USAID official says.

USAID 's payment system was disabled earlier in the shutdown, and it remains nonfunctioning, according to USAID staffers and filings.
