Controversy Arises as Arlington National Cemetery Removes Information on Minority and Female Veterans

The Arlington National Cemetery has recently faced backlash for the removal of web pages dedicated to Black, Hispanic, and female veterans, as well as Civil War history. This decision was reportedly made to comply with directives from the Trump administration, causing outrage among officials and advocates. Utah Lt. Gov. Henderson has publicly condemned the actions, urging the restoration of these critical historical links and highlighting the importance of recognizing the contributions of women and minority service members. Critics argue that this move erases vital history and clashes with the values of inclusivity and representation.
