The U.S. State Department will swiftly begin a major reorganization following a Supreme Court decision that cleared the way for widespread federal agency downsizing.
State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce confirmed on Thursday that the agency is moving into the implementation phase of a plan to streamline its operations, though no specific timeline was given.
The move follows a Supreme Court ruling on Tuesday allowing the Trump administration to proceed with mass government job cuts. T
he decision supports an executive order issued in February directing federal agencies to prepare for significant staff reductions.
The restructuring plan includes job cuts across multiple departments, including Agriculture, Commerce, Health and Human Services, Treasury, and Veterans Affairs.
The changes could impact tens of thousands of federal employees and significantly alter the structure of the U.S. government.
