I did not read LULAC's website, but I have to say: they are the group that initiated a lawsuit and got a consent decree after they sued the State of Florida years ago, resulting in the requirement here and elsewhere that all teachers become certified to teach "ESOL" courses (English for Speakers of Other Languages).

And, I have to say, after listening to comments from other teachers for years about this burdensome requirement, LULAC's time and money and energy would have been better spent on requiring kids and their parents to maybe learn some English if they are planning to be in this country and attend school. I have yet to meet one teacher who is glad that LULAC filed this lawsuit. Not one.
