US government agencies order employees to remove gender pronouns from email signatures
"Multiple US government agencies have ordered employees “to remove gender identifying pronouns from email signature blocks by 5:00 PM” on Friday, according to internal emails seen by CNN.
Directives were sent out to employees at agencies including the State Department, Department of Defense and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). The emails said the move was to align with President Donald Trump’s “Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth” executive order, which says it is US government policy “to recognize two sexes, male and female.” That executive order does not make any specific mention of pronouns, which commonly include “she” and “he” to refer to a woman and a man, respectively, and “they” as a gender-neutral descriptor.
Along with the directive addressing pronouns, several agencies rolled out other changes Friday, ranging from website updates to curtailing celebrations related to diversity. These moves come as Trump is carrying out his campaign pledge of gutting federal diversity and inclusion programs and policies. Within days of taking office, the Trump administration ordered employees in federal DEI and accessibility offices to be placed on paid administrative leave and instructed federal agencies to move to terminate such offices within 60 days. Trump has also ended the use of DEI criteria in hiring and federal contracting."
