Since taking office on January 20, the Trump administration has removed over a dozen U.S. government domains covering topics such as child support benefits, law enforcement accountability, and clean energy. The deletions appear to align with policy shifts and the reversal of Biden-era executive orders.
Among the most notable deletions is ChildTaxCredit.gov, which previously redirected to a White House page promoting the Child Tax Credit, a program that has provided American families with tax breaks since 1997. The web page itself has also been removed, though archived versions remain available online.
Another significant removal is NLead.gov, which was dedicated to the Biden-established National Law Enforcement Accountability Database. This database aimed to track police misconduct for law enforcement recruiters. The website is now offline.
Additionally, domains supporting Biden’s $568 billion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act—such as Build.gov and Invest.gov—have been deleted, as well as websites related to student loan forgiveness and environmental policies, including PublicServiceLoanForgiveness.gov, PSLF.gov, and CleanEnergy.gov.

While these domains are no longer in the .gov zone file—meaning they no longer resolve online—Whois records indicate that most remain registered, leaving open the possibility of their return.
Meanwhile, the Trump administration has registered new domains such as DEI.gov and Waste.gov, though neither currently resolve. Since January 20, around 150 new .gov domains have entered the zone file, but the vast majority belong to small towns rather than the federal government.
The deletions suggest a broader shift in policy priorities under the new administration, signaling a rollback of key Biden-era initiatives.
