Easily.
I speak 2 languages now and used to speak 3 more.
While I am all for Americans learning other langauges as a choice, I oppose Bilingualism. It is a frontal assault on our culture and history.
I would much preffer that immigrants speak english in the home (like my parents do) as it forces them to assimilate.
Given teh demographic, Bilingualism is essentually a method of manking Spanish an official language.

One thing they can do to address what you are talking about is require all signs to be bilingual where a foreign language is used.
This is as they do in Canada with the use of French and English in most labeling and in China where English language on a sign can only be half the height (size) of the Chinese characters on the sign.
