The fact that this was even an issue is ridiculous. While "national origin" is covered under antidiscrimination laws, language is not.

The only area where LOTE are protected by the government is in the voting rights act, which mandates that voting materials be provided in a language other than English if a large percentage of the folks in that locality don't speak or read English.

Why should the U.S. accommodate any persons who have not yet (or may never) learn to speak, write and understand our English language?

The citizens who welcome these votes, in ANY language, do so in order to implement their own agenda, IMO. Sure, there are some bleeding-heart liberals with altruistic motives, but they are also wrong.
