While English has traditionally been the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/zelensky-returns-to-capitol-hill-in-plea-for-continued-assistance-amid-funding-fight\/\" title=\"Zelensky pleads for ongoing aid amidst funding dispute on Capitol Hill.\">de facto language<\/a>, the country is home to \u200ca multitude of languages due to its diverse immigrant population. The order\u2064 will repeal a provision from \u2063former\u200d President Bill\u2064 Clinton&#8217;s governance that required federal entities and <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">organizations receiving federal \u2062funds<\/a> to provide\u200d language assistance to non-English speakers. Despite the order, White House officials have indicated that it \u200cdoes \u200bnot outright prohibit such assistance, aiming instead to promote unity and support the integration of immigrants. The decision aligns with similar legislation adopted\u2062 by over 30 states. Trump\u2063 has long linked\u200c the issue of language to his broader\u2063 political agenda, stating concerns about the prevalence of various \u2064languages \u200din the U.S.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Trump to sign executive order making English the official language of US<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2020105\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Donald Trump<\/a> is preparing to sign an executive order making English the official language of the United States.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>Though English has always been the de facto language of the U.S., the country&rsquo;s rich immigrant history has led to hundreds of languages being spoken by the population and taught in schools.
