How the frick did this thread wander so far afield from the discussion about the idiocy of allowing massive numbers of people in who cannot speak English?

That doesn’t even make sense without specifying what having an official language would mean. Maybe it’s just a recognition that “hey, we should strive for this if we want to be a melting pot” without any enforcement mechanism. Right now we’re on a shitty path, especially in some areas.

Take it up with the Founding Fathers, if you don't like it.
The founders never made a statement one way or the other on an "official" language. However, when Louisiana was granted statehood in 1811, the bill signed by Congress stipulated that all official proceedings of the new state must be done in English. James Madison was president and signed the bill into law (and Madison, of course, was one of the main founding fathers).

This is not unusual. They'll pull out their phone and do Google translate. I worked DoorDash before, nowadays I'm a Lyft driver but I only do airport pick-ups from HSV, LFT, AEX and LCH. You can't pay me enough to go into MSY or BTR. These driving jobs are great for students because it's very flexible, we work when we can. Posted on 6/3/23 at 12:16 pm to AUstar

I have no clue, but if one more of those frickers leave my food at the security gate or drive off without delivery, I’m gonna lose my shite.
Mother fricker took a pic of my food at the gate and said delivered.

I’m not an immigration expert, but I don’t believe that’s the case. The Application for Employment Authorization only asks the following:
Additionally, an interpreter is permitted to complete the application:
I undoubtedly think It’s understood that a basic expectation of learning the English language if/while working in the U.S. exists, but I’m not seeing where it’s required. I’m thinking that’s an employer decision.

So it's their fault that the country doesn't enforce it's laws?
It's their fault for breaking the law(s).
Can I incentivize you to rob a bank? Break into a house? Shoplift? Vandalize property?...even if it's my job to prevent that from happening to the best of my ability and you commit a crime, it's still not your fault? Ignorance of the law is no defense.
The #1 priority of those that work for & represent us has to be the well-being of those they work for & represent, not a nefarious U.N. agenda.
Why don't they treat the thousands of non-violent J6'ers that were allowed/invited on the Capitol grounds and into the building like they do the tens of thousands of border-crossers that are allowed/invited into the country? Shall we compare the legal process each of those groups will encounter/has encountered?
GTFOH

I don’t know. You should ask they.

There's a citizenship test...written in English. Take it up with the Founding Fathers, if you don't like it.

Well, some people are so fricking stupid that they think every immigrant is here illegally. Sound like anyone you know?

This is true. Illegals can apply for a SSN for work purposes only. "Work Purpose Only" is printed on the card. The problem is too many government agencies are clueless and believe the cardholder is a citizen and are giving benefits they are not entitled to.
