    The State Department published a Delegation of Authority signed by Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken on January 10, 2025. This document delegates authority to Rafik Mansour, allowing him to perform the duties originally assigned to the Assistant Secretary for Educational and Cultural Affairs. The delegation is authorized by various laws and will be effective from January 17, 2025, until a new Assistant Secretary takes office. This step ensures continuity in the Department's functions related to educational and cultural affairs.

    Simple Explanation

    The big boss of the State Department let Rafik Mansour do an important job while they wait for a new helper to arrive. This means things keep running smoothly, like a train never stopping, even if there is no new helper ready yet.

    The Department of State has announced that certain culturally significant objects from abroad are being temporarily brought to the U.S. for display in the "Projects: Gabrielle L'Hirondelle Hill" exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. These objects are deemed important for the U.S. and may be shown in additional locations yet to be confirmed. Matthew R. Lussenhop, the Acting Assistant Secretary of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, made this determination based on various legal authorities, and a public notice of this decision will be published in the Federal Register.

    Simple Explanation

    The State Department says some really special things from other countries are coming to the U.S. to be seen in a big art show in New York. They think it's important for everyone to see these special things, and they might go to more places in the U.S. later.
