Marco Rubio ordered the State Department to switch its official communications font from Calibri back to Times New Roman, reversing a policy implemented by the Biden administration.The previous administration, under Antony Blinken, had adopted Calibri as part of a DEIA initiative, citing its enhanced accessibility for individuals with disabilities compared to Times New Roman's serif features.Rubio justified the change by seeking to restore "decorum and professionalism," while Calibri's designer, Lucas de Groot, criticized the decision as a "bad choice" and dismissed the "woke" label as mere politics.
