White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt speaks during the daily briefing on Thursday. The National Association of the Deaf is suing the White House to require American Sign Language interpreters to be present at briefings.

The National Association of the Deaf says the White House's failure to provide ASL interpreters during press briefings leaves some deaf and hard of hearing people without information.
