The more that knot Is untied. the more we will see the results in the headlines: Less toleration for others: More violence and ethnic strife. More entrenched poverty. and More division. This issue may not grab the headlines each day.. but many of the headlines in our papers can be attributed directly to its effects. The bestkept secret in this entire debate is that most immigrants. like most Americans. agree that English should be our official language. Whenever Ive discussed the English language bill in public. such as on the Bob Grant callin show in New York. I have received hundreds of phone calls giving overwhelming support from all over America.
