Washington, D.C. – AFSA is deeply disappointed by the administration’s hurried and callous decision to keep our dedicated public servants in limbo. Time and again, our members have shared how these reckless choices and the dehumanizing rhetoric directed at them have caused untold harm to their personal and professional lives. Our nation’s diplomats and development professionals—who sometimes put their lives on the line in service to their country—have not been treated with the respect, dignity, and support they deserve and have earned.

The American Foreign Service Association (AFSA) is the professional association and labor union of the men and women of the United States Foreign Service.
