President Trump signed an executive order making English the official language of the United States, allowing agencies to offer services in other languages as an option. The order repealed a mandate by former President Bill Clinton. U.S. English reports that over 30 states have already made English their official language, despite failed attempts by Congress to pass legislation in the past.
The move was met with confusion and frustration when the Spanish version of the White House website was taken down at the beginning of Trump’s presidency. The White House said they would bring back the Spanish version, but as of now, it remains offline.
Advocates for making English the official language argue that it fosters national unity, facilitates economic opportunities, and helps newcomers integrate into American society. The symbolism of making English official is seen as reinforcing national values and creating a more cohesive country. The White House has not yet confirmed if they plan to reinstate the Spanish version of the website.
