President Trump Declares English as Official Language of the United States, Revoking Clinton-Era Language Access Order

On March 1, 2025, President Donald Trump signed an executive order making English the official language of the United States. This order rescinded a 2000 mandate by former President Bill Clinton that required federal agencies and recipients of federal funding to provide language assistance to non-English speakers. The new directive allows federal agencies to decide whether to continue offering services in languages other than English, aiming to promote unity and streamline government operations. Critics express concern that this change may limit access to essential services for non-English-speaking communities.
