The Trump administration has stalled medical evacuations for as many as 25 USAID staffers and spouses in the later stages of high-risk pregnancies overseas, 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 and their families.

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

USAID officials say the funding freeze and staff reductions have kept lifesaving programs worldwide offline.

That includes a two-decade-old AIDS and HIV program credited with saving more than 20 million lives in Africa .

USAID ’s payment system was disabled earlier in the shutdown, and it remains nonfunctioning.
