GA-Senate to drivers – Speak English
Senate to drivers – Speak English
3:15 pm March 30, 2010, by Ernie Suggs
According to state Sen. Jack Murphy, there are 13 languages in which someone can sit and test for their Georgia driver’s license.
For him, that is about a dozen too many. So on Tuesday, the Cumming republican revised and got approved a bill that would make English the official and only language someone can use to get their license.
Murphy, who chairs the public safety committee, said it was naturally a safety issue. Drivers who can’t read road signs pose a danger to everyone, he said.
But critics of the bill, point to the fact that illiterate Georgians are still allowed to drive and are helped with the test. But their overriding concern is that the bill is anti-immigration and stunts economic development in the state.
They even have a name for it.
