Bill in Congress would make make U.S. multilingual

Wake up folks!

According to U. S. English Inc. (1747 Pennsylvania Ave, NW Washington, D.C. 20006; 202-833-0100; www.usenglish.org) there is a bill now in Congress called “English Plus,” H. Con. Rev. 9. This bill would ban ever making English our official unifying language. It would make America officially multilingual.

Even now, we as taxpayers are paying huge amounts of money to comply with Executive Order 13166, already in place to provide services in languages other than English (surprise, surprise, mainly Spanish!).

Call, write, e-mail or whatever, our representatives in Washington. Let them know this “English Plus” bill must be stopped.

By the way, the Chairman of the Board/ CEO of U. S. English Inc. is Mauro E. Mujica, an Hispanic immigrant.
