Speech #970250236

I have introduced legislation to make our bilingual education laws more reasonable and effective. I have attempted to do away with the costly and confusing Federal bilingual ballot. I have sought to amend the Constitution to make English the official 1cnguage of the United States. And I have prodded the Congress to ckrntowledgefor the sake of our bewildered nonEnglishspeaking citizens and immigrantsthat English is the preeminent language of our land. Why have I spent so much time speaking about the importance of our common language? Why have I attempted to make the Congress and the public aware of the failure of our current methods of bilingual education?
