Voted NO on declaring English as the official language of the US government.

This is sad, this is our language and even Bill Clinton made an excutive order saying so, Obama voted no to kill Clintons order.

Voted NO on declaring English as the official language of the US government.

I believe the American people understand in order to succeed in our society, immigrants need to learn English. But the amendment would do a number of things that are problematical. The first is that it is contrary to the provisions of law that exist in many States. For example, in New Mexico, you have in their State Constitution, a provision that says that many of the documents within that State have to be provided in both English and Spanish. The same thing is true for the State of Hawaii. I believe this is a States rights issue, and those constitutions of those States ought to be respected. I do not believe it is a matter we ought to be imposing here from Washington DC.

Also, this amendment would undo an executive order conceived by President Bill Clinton and implemented by President George Bush. Both recognized it is important that people who have limited English proficiency receive the kinds of services so they can understand what is going on in terms of the interface between the Government and themselves.

There you go again, are you ok? Taken your meds for the night?

I knew you would do this so I saved it back for you because yooo mind doesnt work to well. Let me know if you need help reading and understanding it.

Here is the bill this moron marxist freak named Obama voted NO on, if this pathetic piece of racist crap would have voted yes it would have made ENGLISH our damn language and this ****head bum voted against it.

Heres your lie right back in yooooo face. He did undo Clintons executive order.

Before you apologize and bow down to me, read it first so you wont look like such a stupid fool.

Also, this amendment would undo an executive order conceived by President Bill Clinton and implemented by President George Bush.

I will wait for your apology.
