Abstract:
For 25 years, Michael Rodriguez has worked in international public health, most recently leading a multi-country, $40 million U.S. Agency for International Development funded project to strengthen health care systems in regions plagued by persistent violent conflict, climate disasters, and displaced populations. When the federal government shuttered the agency's operations in February, he found himself furloughed at first and then ultimately let go on March 10.
