In a Jan 24 email to a small group of #Treasury ofcls, the chief of staff, #DanKatz, wrote that Krause & his team needed access to the system so they could pause #USAID payments & comply w/ #Trump’s Jan 20 #ExecutiveOrder to halt #ForeignAid.

“To the extent permitted by #law, we would like to implement the pause as soon as possible in order to ensure that we are doing our role to comply with the EO,” Katz wrote.
