He’s not wrong tho, we already learn Spanish here.
I've been disgusted for decades that NO politician, that I know of, tried to have a bill passed to make English the official language of the U.S.! (how could it not have been done a century ago?) And what is worse, is how virtually every American corporation caters to Spanish-speaking people. I think it would be awesome if a major U.S. corporation came out with an ad that said something like "We at ________ believe the United States is the greatest country the world has ever known, and as an English-speaking country, we believe that only English should be used for public communication by U.S. citizens. As such, ______ will only offer products and services through printed and spoken English." They might lose business from illegals and leftists, but would gain possibly more from patriots.
Funny how a lot of countries have an official language, but if our country tries to enact it, it's the worst thing since slavery.
Just searched, and it recently was tried: https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/997/text
Looked at this - the "actions" tab says - 'introduced into house' on 2/9/17 but then nothing. Is it still just sitting out there but on the bottom of a stack? Does it mean 'timed out due to inactivity'? or does it mean 'dead as long as Queen Nancy is in office'?
I went through that too and couldn't find any follow up info, and when researching King, it appears he is no longer in office. I don't know what happens to a bill if the sponsor isn't in office. But it's obvious with Pelosi as speaker, it would never make it to a vote. The question is, if Republicans take back house, could this bill actually be brought up for a vote?
IIRC, Paul Ryan was speaker on that date. And, bills die at the end of each Congress - every two years.
