Trump Removes Spanish-Language White House Website and Social Media, Affects 43 Million Speakers
Jan 22, 2025, 01:22 PM
The Trump administration has taken down the Spanish-language version of the White House website, a move that echoes actions taken during his first term in 2017. The website now displays a '404 error' message with a 'Go to Home Page' button, which initially read 'Go Home'. This change occurred shortly after Trump's inauguration, coinciding with his issuance of executive orders aimed at immigration policies. The removal of the Spanish section, along with the closure of the White House's Spanish social media accounts, has sparked controversy, with critics arguing it limits access to information for the significant Spanish-speaking population in the U.S., estimated at about 43 million people. The administration has indicated plans to reinstate the Spanish translation section of the website, according to White House principal deputy press secretary Harrison Fields.
