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

[_.]

I agree that it should be put up to a referendum

I'd vote against it because, frankly, it seems quite unnecessary but if that's what Southerners want then they should have it

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?

Okay, but I'd be voting no.

Unsure if you'd all prefer that to a referendum.

Nay!
