The author of this article tries to prove that English is the language of America and everyone should learn to speak it, because it will only open up their opportunities. He starts by talking about the EEOC prosecuting the salvation for requiring their employees to speak English in the workplace after working for a year. Then he talks about how a bill came up for vote in the senate to give these employers the right to require their workers to speak English, and Democrats stopped the bill in the House. He then uses stats to show that the majority of the U.S. believes that immigrants should speak English, and even more Americans believe that speaking English would be a beneficial thing for them. The author finishes by saying that teaching immigrants English only opens up doors for them in the U.S., and our goal should be to give them those possibilities.
