Johns Hopkins University announced Thursday that it will be cutting more than 2,000 jobs after it lost $800 million in funding from the US Agency for International Development amid the Trump administration’s effort to significantly downsize the federal government.

The bulk of the layoffs at the top research university will impact its international employees. 1,975 employees across 44 countries have been cut, the university said in a statement, with another 247 jobs terminated in the US. Roughly 100 additional workers will be furloughed with reduced schedules.
