I open this up for a 48-hour debate.

I mean I will point out that in many nations, students are required to be bilingual (or in some cases trilingual) in a certain language. I know that in Costa Rica, they were mandated to speak English in their early grade school years. I would be fine with mandating all gov't documents and resources be able to be produced in Españiol, along with expanding language opportunities in our schools (especially in the early Pre-K to 6th grade).

I am not supportive of a national language(s), as we are made up by incredible diversity that should not be limited to one's spoken language. I cannot say I am a current supporter of this bill.

Kay, y'all get the drill. 48-hour principle vote.

Aye, Nay, Abstain.

Yo voto negativo. Este proyecto de ley es estúpido porque nacional idiomas soy poco prácticos. Y este tampoco aun así no hacer avanzar educación de idoma. Por lo tanto, yo voto 'NAY'.

If this bill had included measures to actually help Atlasians read, instead of making (as was said) an unfunded mandate, you all would be able to read that. Sad!

Who says I can't read it?

La disculpa, mi amigo! Hay unos muchos gringos en este foruma.

By a vote of 8-1, this fails.
