Thousands of Agency Web Pages Have Been Taken Down

“More than 8,000 web pages across more than a dozen U.S. government websites have been taken down since Friday afternoon, as federal agencies rush to heed President Trump’s orders targeting diversity initiatives and ‘gender ideology,’” the New York Times reports.

“The purges have removed information about vaccines, veterans’ care, hate crimes and scientific research, among many other topics. Doctors, researchers and other professionals often rely on such government data and advisories. Some government agencies appear to have removed entire sections of their websites, while others are missing only a handful of pages.”
