My amendment does not prohibit the use of other languages. However. my amendment states: There is no entitlement to individuals that Federal agencies must act. communicate. perform. or provide services or materials in any language other than English. So it is hypocritical that the immigration legislation we are considering now contains a section generally recognizing the importance of English. However. this section 702 of this immigration legislation does not establish English as a national language. Now. we had this debate. We were on the Senate floor and debating this about a year ago right now. and people were hesitant to vote for it.
