    • 2025 April 9, Jennifer Hansler, “USAID informa a su personal extranjero que será despedido a mediados de agosto”, in CNN en Español‎[1]:
      “Y es especialmente ofensivo para quienes, en lugares peligrosos, perseveraron trabajando con nosotros y se quedaron sin nada, ni siquiera una visa especial de inmigrante (SIV)”. Una SIV, o visa especial de inmigrante, permite el reasentamiento en EE.UU. a quienes trabajaron para el gobierno estadounidense.
      “And it’s especially offensive to those who, in dangerous places, persevered working with us and were left with nothing, not even a Special Immigrant Visa (SIV).” An SIV, or Special Immigrant Visa, allows resettlement in the U.S. for those who have worked for the U.S. government.
