The Carter administration attempted to substantially broaden this mandate by proposing requirements for schools to teach other academic subjects entirely in students native language. I am proposing this amendment because I believe that we are being dishonest with linguistic minority groups if we tell them they can take full part in American life without learning the English language. We may wish it were otherwise. but it simply is not so. As the son of an immigrant to an Englishspeaking country. I know this from personal experience. If I spoke no English. my world would be limited to the Japanesespeaking community. and no matter how talented I was.
