美国国际开发署（USAID）的内部记录和电子邮件显示，埃隆·马斯克领导的政府效率部（DOGE）成员杰里米·莱温（Jeremy Lewin）在2025年3月实施大规模解雇和项目取消时，尚未完成联邦政府标准的入职文书工作。
Internal Records Show DOGE Operative Lacked Standard HR Onboarding While Dismantling USAID Internal USAID records and emails revealed that Jeremy Lewin, an affiliate of Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), carried out sweeping dismissals and program cancellations in March 2025 before completing standard federal onboarding paperwork.
尽管国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥（Marco Rubio）授予莱温行政权力，但该机构人力资源部门没有他的雇佣记录，也无法为他签发身份证件，而他却终止了数千名员工的职务并关闭了60个海外使团。
Although Secretary of State Marco Rubio delegated executive authority to Lewin, agency human resources had no record of his employment and could not issue him an identification badge as he terminated thousands of staff and shuttered 60 foreign missions.
莱温和政府代表坚称，他在国务院框架下的任命和安全许可是合法的。
Lewin and administration representatives maintained his appointment and security clearances under State Department auspices were lawful.
然而，法律学者和提起诉讼的原告认为，绕过文官程序和《联邦职位空缺改革法》使该重组面临法律无效的风险。
However, legal scholars and plaintiffs challenging the moves argue the bypass of civil service procedures and the Federal Vacancies Reform Act exposes the restructuring to legal invalidation.
