I would like to bring to the attention of my colleagues an editorial written in the February 19. 1987 issue of the Macomb Daily. in Macomb County. MI. in support of my English language amendment. In my opinion. this article provides an excellent response to those critics of the English language amendment who have labeled it discriminatory. By way of introduction. the author of this editorial. Mr. Mitch Kehetian. is a first generation American who is proud of the success experienced by immigrants for over 150 years. These individuals built the American dream and prospered because they learned English at an early age. without the aid of a host of Federal programs that promote language divisions in our society. [From the Macomb Daily. Feb. 19. 1987]
