No. It's far more tax-efficient to conduct all official business in one language. English being the most popular language in the US, that seems to be an appropriate choice. If you have to maintain an army of translators, and print everything in six languages (which some states do) then that is a burdon on the tax payers.
Remember that to become a US citizen you have to take a proficiency test in English; so it is already a de facto standard for the country.

English only is great.
"Native" Americans are not native to this continent at all. DNA testing proves once and for all that Indians are merely Asians who followed the land bridge. (This is why Indians have a mongoloid-shaped, Asian skull and black hair.)
The oldest known remains ever found in both north and south America are that of Kennewick Man, found along the banks of the Columbia River. Kennewick man was white not Indian/Asian.
When the white man arrived for a second time to the Americas they found that the Indian/Asians hadn't yet invented the wheel and regularly practiced cannibalism.
White folks created the greatest, freest and most prosperous society the world has ever known.

i think of tribal languages from the U. S. territory must be exempt, and that i'm anti unlawful to boot. i'm optimistic it become an oversight in the bill. although, tribal languages heavily isn't used for genuine US employer, for the reason that no person else ought to appreciate it. in actuality, i can not get too excited over the language conflict. English has been the genuine language for years in California, and that i be conscious no effect.

I approve of it, if it says what I suppose. Everyone in the US can learn English, and can hardly function without knowing it. Every immigrant is required to demonstrate proficiency in it in order to become a citizen. There must be just one language for court proceedings; clearly, it has to be English. So the whole business makes sense to me.

I have no problem with a government making an official language in which to conduct business. OK is A-OK with me.
