Mujica, Mauro E. (2003, July, 7). Official English legislation: myths and realities. Human Events, 59, Retrieved October 31, 2007, from http://proxy.elmhurst.edu/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=a9h&AN=10380206&site=ehost-live

This article explains five different myths about Official English Legislation that many people opposing it will often use as arguments. It debunks these myths and proves that these arguments are illegitimate. Mujica is the Chairman of U.S. ENGLISH, Inc. He is also an immigrant from Chile. The arguments he presents are accurate and show that Official English does not hurt immigrants. At the end of the article, is HR 997: English Language Unity Act of 2003. In my paper I will use the myths and Mujica's debunking of the myths to further my argument for Official English, and I will use the House Resolution presented to show how Official English legislation works.
