According to the AP News, the White House's Spanish version X (formerly Twitter) account and the government page on reproductive freedom are also unavailable. However, Spanish pages of other government agencies such as the Department of Labor, Department of Justice, and Department of Agriculture are still operational.
White House Deputy Press Secretary Harrison Fields responded to questions about this change by saying, "(It is) the second day of the administration," and that they are "in the process of developing, editing, and adjusting the White House website," AP reported.
He added, "As part of the ongoing work, some archived content on the website has been put into a dormant state," and "We are committed to restoring that content shortly."
