'Why then do I continue to see, receive and hear communications from government entities (most recently a mailing from the Salt Lake City government) printed in both English and Spanish,' asks Bob Barr. 'And why are we all paying for that?'
Private companies have the right to operate and set standards based on a variety of motives that may contradict certain rules and standards But I am not sure government entities have that same flexibility.
And that is why I posit this thought. One of the laws regulating application for citizenship is that applicants must “demonstrate basic literacy in English.” Why then do I continue to see , receive and hear communications from government entities printed in both English and Spanish? And why are we all paying for that?
Presumably, if the recipient of the information cannot read it, they are not a citizen and as such have no legal input in the issues presented by the flyers. I know I am setting myself up for ridicule and expressions of hatred and suggestions of harm raining down on me. But again this is not anti-anything or anyone, but just a question asking for common sense.
