Dear Senator [recipient name inserted here],
In the past, to become an American Citizen, you had to learn English as
well as speak it. Now, we as Americans, must either put up with or learn
a foreign language in order to survive. Yes, I said survive! Why have we
as a country, continued to put up with this?
Please co-sponsor Sen. Dole's bill, S. 2719, to repeal the multilingual
mandate called Exec. Order 13166.
It is estimated that having this bill cost US, the people of this great
country, millions, if not billions of dollars a year. Why have we stopped
requiring this for immigrants to live/become citizens of this country?
Forcing federal fund recipients to provide services in foreign languages
eliminates incentives for immigrants to learn English.
Why are we funding immigrants who are NOT citizens? Why aren't they
required to speak/learn our language to become eligible for ANY funding?
Why are they collecting Social Security, having NEVER contributed? We as
Americans want to know! We have an investment in our country!
The American people never voted to transform their country into a
multilingual 'Tower of Babel.'
Please work to keep our nation united by language by working to pass S.
2719.
Sincerely,
