According to Congressional Budget Office estimates. this legislation will cost American taxpayers and local governments millions of dollars. In fact. in large urban areas where many different language minorities exist. costs would be increased to meet all these different languages. It is my feeling that this money could be better spent. For instance. funding for this bill would be better spent in assisting Individuals to leam English so that they can better participate in American democracy. I do support efforts which assist immigrants when they first enter America. It is important that we provide bilingual materials to our new American citizens until they have achieved fluency in English. In addition.
