Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe has announced plans for a bill to make English the official language of America. In my humble opinion, English should have been the official language for the past two hundred years - and longer.
English is the international language in business and one can’t fly an airplane anywhere in the world without knowing English. Certainly if immigrants want to succeed here, they have to know English.
Let’s hope that the bill gets feet and runs straight through to passage.
Just imagine not having to press one to speak to someone. And, no more signs in Spanish. I shop at the largest retailer in the world and the local store does not have an English version in customer service.
Yes, it will take tremendous effort to teach all those that can’t speak the language, but it will be worth it to everyone.
Teach them to speak East Texan and send them to New York.
