Following similar legislation that was proposed in the House of Representatives last week, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) introduced a measure on March 30 that would establish English as the official language of the United States and mandate that all government correspondence is printed in English.
The “English Language Unity Act,” which is co-sponsored by Sen. Kevin Cramer (R -N.D.), would also adjust guidelines for naturalization by establishing a universal English language-testing standard and requiring that all naturalization ceremonies be conducted in English.
