Trump Administration Enforces Policy to Ignore Reporters Using Pronoun Signatures

Officials claim the practice disregards biological reality, reinforcing the administration's broader stance against transgender rights.

The Trump administration has confirmed a policy of not responding to reporters who include preferred pronouns in their email signatures.
White House officials, including Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and Katie Miller, argue that using pronouns in signatures reflects a rejection of biological reality and factual accuracy.
This policy is consistently applied across the administration, with multiple officials refusing to engage with journalists who use pronoun signatures.
The refusal aligns with broader measures under President Trump to restrict transgender rights, including bans on transgender military service and participation in women's sports.
A journalist's experiment verified that emails with pronoun signatures prompted automated refusals from administration officials, further corroborating the policy's enforcement.
