Spotsylvania adopts English as official language
Spotsylvania adopts English as official language
Associated Press - September 12, 2007 9:25 AM ET
SPOTSYLVANIA, Va. (AP) - It's official: Spotsylvania County has recognized English as its official language.
Supervisors passed resolutions Tuesday night to recognize English as the county's official language and to join a coalition of local governments that will study legislative solutions to illegal immigration.
Spotsylvania Supervisor Chris Yakabouski was behind both resolutions, which passed unanimously. He is running for a state Senate seat.
The coalition resolution states illegal immigrants "may cause an increased burden on county-provided services, increased cost to the county and a potential increase in crime rates."
Culpeper's Board of Supervisors initiated the coalition.
