The organization has publicized the plight of English and the growth of language separatism. and the response from the American people has been most extraordinary. People all over the country are coming to the fore to defend our common language from further displacement. and we are beginning to see the protection of English arise as a potent political issue that we would ignore at our peril. Prudent legislators will look at all these trendsthe record immigration we are experiencing. the new resistance to the acceptance of English. the laissezfaire language policies now in effect. they will note the strong desire of American people to preserve the language that holds us together. and they will review available options. see the benign effect of a constitutional amendment. and they will decide that the national interest will be well served by such legislation. We have the opportunity to leave behind. as a permanent legacy to generations of Americans yet unborn. the instrument of our social cohesion and of our national unity. A greater gift no Congress can ever hope to bestow.
