Ind. Law - Still more on: What are "English only documents" and what is excepted?
Updating this ILB entry from Jan. 30, 2011, an editorial today in the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette, headed "Costly, unneeded English-only bill," begins:
Sen. Mike Delph, R-Carmel, claims Hoosiers are sick of “pressing 1 for English.” His solution is an immigration bill that, if passed, won’t solve any illegal immigration problems but would cost state taxpayers money and pigeonhole Hoosiers as bigots.With action coming on Delph’s bill, SB 590, another piece of legislation promoting intolerance, HB 1255 authored by Rep. Suzanne Crouch, R-Evansville, is already making its way through the legislature with too few obstacles. That bill would require that state documents be printed in English only. It passed in the House 63-26 and now heads to the Senate.
