H.R. 997 Garners Tremendous Support in First Month Following Introduction

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Less than a month after being introduced in the 111th Congress, H.R. 997, legislation to make English the official language of the United States, picked up its 100th co-sponsor this afternoon. The support of North Carolina Representative Mike McIntyre gave the measure 100 bi-partisan co-sponsors from 35 states and marked the earliest an official English bill has reached the 100 co-sponsor mark this decade.

“Making English the official language is an idea that remains widely supported by a large majority of the American people,” said Mauro E. Mujica, Chairman of the Board of U.S. English. “A focus on English learning and assimilation is not reserved for good economic times or bad economic times, for a Democrat-controlled Congress or Republican-controlled Congress. It is a full-time societal expectation that government will encourage English learning by doing the majority of business in English.”
