Government should encourage English learning, not limit itby ckulat@thehill.com (Mauro E. Mujica)
Budget cuts to English classes for immigrants have recently earned widespread media coverage across the country. As an immigrant myself, I know that one of the worst things the government can do to immigrants is hinder their access to English language learning programs.
In the United States, a life without English proficiency is a life of low-skill, low-paying jobs. By learning just a little bit of English, an immigrant’s income can rise by as much as 35 percent.
That is why, beginning in 1811 and as recently as 2010, 31 states have passed legislation or amended state constitutions to declare English the official language.
