@Phil @realcaseyrollins It enshrines an agency. Yes, under the state dept, Secretary of State:

"Unless abolished pursuant to the reorganization
plan submitted under section 601, and except as provided in section
412, there is within the executive branch of Government the United
States Agency for International Development as an entity described in
section 104 of title 5, United States Code."

Pretty plain language! 1/

@Phil @realcaseyrollins 602 explicitly forsees the reorganization of AID, but sets a deadline of October 1, 1998. 2/

@Phil @realcaseyrollins that "under this division" in 611 is referring back to 601. it's not perpetual authorization for SoS to reorganize the State department. that's the very function of this bill! it was permission that expired in 1998. /fin
