I agree with Mrs. Simmons we need to lobby for a law to make english the official language. Why should we catter to these people? most immigrants past and present assimilated with no problem by learning english. I lived in miami all my exoerienced how these hispanics came over took over most of the H.R. departments and hire only hispanics. This is why it is difficult for african american to find a job because discrimination, yet our black local congressional leaders refuse to lobby or speak out against the negative affects of the cuban adjustment act or the wet foot dry foot policy. It is they refuse to adress the nagative impact. I guarantee if the situation was otherwise affecting cubans they would have ending such a policy in a minute. I guess we elect incompetent representativeso who are concerned about self interest.

Unless you are applying as an interpreter or dealing with refugees(new arrivals) there should be no bilingual requirement. A lawsuit needs to be filed or a bill needs to introduced with Congress. But they wont touch it because of the Hispanic vote. So unless a regular person get sick and tired of it and DO SOMETHING you better start habla espanol.

Everyone needs to speak English . Many spanish people are not bilingual and still get the bilingual jobs. Many only speak spanish. This is due to Jimmy Carter bringing them here too fast by boatloads and not requiring them to learn english. Someone needs to file a lawsuit and if English is not the official language language the USA needs to announce this. It should not be one part of American must speak english and the other parts do something else. If this is not America, then who are we. File a lawsuit that Americans should not be discriminated against. Do you think you could go to CUBA OR OTHER SPANISH COUNTRIES AND DECLARE THEY MUST SPEAK ENGLISH.THEY WOULD RUN YOU OUT OF TOWN.
