On April 22, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced a reorganization of the State Department, labeling it as "bloated" and overly influenced by radical ideologies. Critics view this reorganization as a modest start that does not significantly alter the agency's core functions, such as embassy operations. Among the changes is the elimination of the Office of the Under-Secretary for Civilian Security, which has drawn heavy criticism for its alleged biases. Rubio's plan aims to reduce domestic offices from 734 to 602, but many within the department believe more extensive reforms are necessary for meaningful progress.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio described the State Department as "bloated, bureaucratic," and claimed that reorganization is needed to align with the Trump administration’s vision.
Many critics argue that while the reorganization marks a step forward, the elimination of a few offices does not represent sweeping reforms that the agency desperately needs.
