English was voted as the official language all ready. Why does he start by stating that people are saying we SHOULD make it law. It all ready is. Citation, please. While I really, really wish it WERE the official language of the USA, we officially have no official language on a national level.    We do, however, have English as an official language in CA as of '86, but that was a feel-good measure with no teeth. Just like every other step in the right direction this state takes (yes, I live here too).     Furthermore, that means that all imigants HAVE to learn to read, write, and speak ENGLISH. Unfortunately, the INS can't enforce this because they're a federal, not state, organization. And CA will never enforce this because they're too wimpy for it.
