S.21-2.16 Official Language of the South Act (Failed)

[At-Large Senator LouisvilleThunder]

I think this bill can be fleshed out. We could declare English to be the official language but add a clause that would still ensure that accommodations can be provided to people who need to receive information in a foreign language such as the many Spanish speaking Southerners in states like Texas and Florida. If the desire is there for this to be settled in a referendum, then I suggest holding off on a final vote until this bill is passed and vote accordingly.

Let's have it be tabled until August then when the new chamber-people can vote how they like.

Could we vote now?
