The reason I feel this way is because the language spoken in this country is English. When this country was founded this was such. There have never been such problems until recently. Why now? Think of the cost to employers to teach other languages. This is a free country and they have a right to do what they want under the constitution, not under intrusion.
Under further as what I did. Most suspects were released because they could not speak English. So, is that fair to the American people? I don't think so. This country was founded under English principles.

Equal Opportunity taken to the Nth level of insanity. Employers need to communicate with their employees, including federal employers, and needn't be burdened by unreasonable and unenforceable ideas like this. This is just silly. Glad someone is attempting to complain about it.
