“Looking forward to the Hawaiian judge blocking this EO with a court order... written in English.”

Good luck ... They even use Hawaiian in the Airport. Utter nonsense.

It specifically says it’s not to stop publications that are being printed in other languages.

This is either a small stepping stone, or just window dressed platitudes.

In the 1990s, Californians voted to add language to the state Constitution, making English the official language of California.

The courts ruled that while English could be the "official language," that status could not negate any "civil rights" enjoyed by people (citizens or not) in California (i.e., no English Only ballots, no English Only government services or classrooms, etc.).

The court "upheld" the ballot proposition, while negating its legal power and effects.

Yeah. I love Trump’s EO’s, but the winnies in congress have to make them all into law or else the next communist dimocrat that gets into that seat will simply undo everyone of them. That have to do that before the midterms and they won’t, don’t see it happening.

"I really get p***** when they tell me Press 1 for Spanish...2 for English"

And then you're connected to some foreign call center where they can't even speak it legibly.

Even with magnifying glasses, it’s difficult to read the fine print on some things.”

You’re aware I’d made reference to the two or more languages (of instructions) that will shrink the English into asymptopial nothingness?

nothing in this order, however, requires or directs any change in the services provided by any agency. Agency heads should make decisions as they deem necessary to fulfill their respective agencies’ mission and efficiently provide Government services to the American people.

This part right here cancels any effect this EO may of had. Congress has failed miserably on this very question when it should have been just common sense because most of them know the Bible story of Babel.

Nothing in that EO will stop it either.

You need to read this part carefully to understand this EO will change nothing.

Does this mean we can get back to English only ballots in California instead of all these?

Nope.

Long overdue...
I hope multi-lingual ballots will be eliminated.
