To every FSN leaving USAID this week: thank you.
For your service.
For your integrity.
For your unwavering commitment to your countries and to the values of partnership.

You are global development leaders, and we are better for having worked alongside you.
At Aid on the Hill, we know firsthand what you’ve built and what we’re losing. Whether in program design or diplomacy, logistics or leadership, you showed up every day to make U.S. foreign assistance more effective, more ethical, and more accountable.
You have been the institutional memory, technical experts, cultural bridges, and steady hands behind decades of progress. With strategic vision and deep knowledge of local contexts, you quietly and powerfully shaped better futures around the world.
Today, as USAID Missions around the world close their doors, thousands of Foreign Service Nationals (FSNs) are being separated from service.

A letter to our FSN partners and friends–
We’ve filled a critical gap, bringing real expertise and urgency to policymakers as foreign aid faces serious threats.

➡️ If you believe in smart development and U.S. global leadership, help us keep facts and experience front and center. Invest in our work.

Abandoning these programs isn’t just short-sighted—it weakens our borders, increases long-term taxpayer costs, and creates space for global adversaries to fill the void.

💪🏽 This is our moment to stay visible, organized, and relentless. We’ve been here before, and we know how to keep showing up.

📢 Help us spread the word!
🌙 Late last night, the Senate passed the foreign aid rescission—an outcome none of us wanted, but one we were prepared for. We know how frustrating and disheartening this can feel. But this moment also marks the start of the next phase of our advocacy: the in-district campaign.
🚨 URGENT ACTION

The Senate is expected to vote this week on the H.R. 4 rescissions package, which would eliminate $8.3 billion in previously approved foreign assistance funds. The deadline is this Friday.

📞 Now is the time to act! Contact your Senators and urge them to vote NO on H.R. 4.
Our mission is simple:

👉 Save funding.
👉 Save expertise.
👉 Save statutes.
👉 Save US global influence

We’re proud to officially launch our social media pages. These platforms are a space to learn, share, and take action together.

❤️ Like, share, and tag friends who care. Let’s make this visible!
📢 AID on the Hill is Now Online!

We're a nonpartisan, grassroots effort to ensure Congress—and the American public—hear the voices of those who believe that foreign assistance is a core American value and should remain a powerful force for global stability, economic growth, and national security.
