The federal government has begun to implement President Donald Trump’s March 1 executive order designating English as the official language of the U.S. with initial guidance issued by the Department of Justice Monday.
Federal agencies have been directed to review and rescind earlier guidance based on an executive order from former President Bill Clinton in 2000, which directed them to enhance access to federal programs for less proficient English speakers. Agencies are to consider English-only services and embrace translation-assistance technologies where possible to save on the cost of translation services.
