(WND)—It was RedState that noted: “President Trump has long wanted English to be the official language of the United States, and this week took another important step in making that happen. The Department of Justice (DOJ) published sweeping new guidance in the Federal Register Thursday, urging all federal agencies to conduct their business exclusively in English, stating that ‘agencies should strive to operate solely in English.’”
It is the New York Post that confirmed Trump’s administration is “doubling down” on plans to make federal government operations available all in English.
The new guidance from the Department of Justice informs, “Agencies should strive to operate solely in English.”
The report explained, “The directive urges federal agencies to provide a wide range of government materials exclusively in English, including official correspondence, regulations, public announcements, applications, websites, educational resources and even internal communications and artificial intelligence tools.”
The president had, in March 2025, issued an executive order focusing on using English for government operations, an order that now is being expanded by the DOJ guidance.
Some foreign language offerings are required, or deemed necessary, and are to be continued.
But if they do not involve national security, or health care, for two examples, they need to be in English.
The report said, “Several departments have already begun making changes. The Department of Housing and Urban Development removed non-English languages from its services in August, while the departments of Homeland Security, education and treasury have begun scrubbing foreign-language materials from their websites,” the report noted.
Promoters of a multi-lingual U.S. government say they want people to be able to converse easily if they are reporting a crime or seeking information on filing taxes.
It was Bill Clinton who back in 2000 launched a scheme having federal agencies operate in multiple languages.
