State Department employees ordered to remove pronouns from their email signatures in internal memo

Salon  

Employees of the U.S. Department of State were asked to remove any preferred pronouns from email signatures on Friday, a leaked internal memo revealed. The message from the State Department's Under Secretary for Management Tibor Nagy said the move was made to comply with President Donald Trump's recent executive order attacking the rights of transgender people. “All employees are required to remove any gender identifying pronouns from email signature blocks by 5pm today.” The memo was shared online by independent journalist Ken Klippenstein. Trump's executive order labeled itself as a broadside against "gender ideology," calling the idea that people born male could identify as women "false."
