In the last blog about NYS Agencies ordered to have forms in six foreign languages, they must also provide interpreters. Another crazy expense in a time of budget crisis. I believe that in our Constitution, in order to vote, you must be able to speak and understand English. This helps you to be able to cast your ballot, but also, helps you understand the issues and the candidates. It makes sense to me. Too bad that Andrew Cuomo doesn't know that.
On the left coast in liberal California, elementaty schools had one class each, of English and Spanish speaking students. Two classes and two teachers for every grade. Much added expense. One community went against the rule and combined the classes for English only. My favorite part of this story is when a little Mexican girl was asked how the first year affected her. She related that , at first it was difficult, but soon she was having fun learning and speaking English. And she said, that best of all, she had a whole bunch of new friends.-----Are you listening Andrew and the rest of you mis-guided liberals?
