What the document says

“The USAID Administrator should be authorized to take on the additional role of Director of Foreign Assistance”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 255

The chapter asks that the Administrator hold the additional role of Director of Foreign Assistance with the rank of Deputy Secretary, which would place the agency's head over the coordination of foreign assistance more broadly.

What the document actually says

“The USAID Administrator should be authorized to take on the additional role of Director of Foreign Assistance”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 255
That sentence, in plain words

The head of this agency should also run all foreign aid.

What this is about

Aid is handled by more than one agency. The book says one person should run it all. That person would be the head of USAID.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to read this page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the book itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
