Trump Administration Restricts Over 200 Words in Government Communication

The directive targets terms related to diversity, gender, and climate, sparking criticism over censorship and political motives.

  • The Trump administration has issued guidelines limiting or banning the use of over 200 words and phrases in official government documents and communications.
  • Targeted terms include those associated with social justice, gender identity, climate change, and racial equity, such as 'feminism,' 'transgender,' and 'climate crisis.'
  • Critics argue the move constitutes censorship aimed at suppressing discussions on topics that conflict with the administration's policies.
  • Supporters of the directive claim it is a necessary measure to counteract what they describe as politically charged and biased language in government operations.
  • The changes align with broader efforts by the administration to roll back programs supporting diversity, inclusion, and climate initiatives.
