A federal judge on Sept. 29 ordered the federal government to pause its plan to cut hundreds of jobs at the agency that oversees state-funded broadcaster Voice of America (VOA).
U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth in Washington said in a written order that the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM) must temporarily withhold its plan to terminate 532 full-time jobs, while the court determines whether the federal agency complied with an earlier court order.
