Summary
Shortly after President Trump's inauguration, the Spanish-language White House website was taken down, along with Latino-focused social media profiles. Advocacy groups have criticized this move, suggesting it alienates Latino voters and limits access to government information for over 43 million Spanish speakers in the U.S. While White House officials pledged to restore the site, reactions indicate a broader concern over Trump's approach to Latino engagement and priorities. The removal aligns with a crackdown on immigration policy, raising questions about how the administration will address the needs of this demographic.
