The FY 2025 Budget Request Modernizes and Bolsters the Workforce
This Budget Request will drive forward an ambitious modernization of American diplomacy and development to ensure we are equipped to meet the challenges and seize upon the opportunities of our time. Modernizing diplomacy depends on sustained investments in our people to build capacity and expertise. The Request advances our presence in the Indo-Pacific, reduces Foreign Service vacancies, enhances workplace flexibilities, seeks to improve compensation for our Locally Employed (LE) staff around the world, and invests in critical mission areas. It also sustains ongoing initiatives to advance Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility (DEIA) across the foreign affairs workforce.
