Census Mandates Chinese Language Ballots In Sacramento County

Quote:

Sacramento County must provide ballots and voting materials in Chinese, the census bureau said Wednesday.

The Voting Rights Act requires counties to provide materials in a language other than English if more than 10,000 of its residents are members of a single-language minority group and do not "speak or understand English adequately enough to participate in the electoral process,"

If you can't speak English, you cannot be a US citizen.

No; What you say is not true, thanks to non-assimilation, and anchor baby tolerance. You must be able to speak a minimum of English to obtain citizenship when you are an immigrant; If you are born here and your parents speak only spanish or english and let you grow up that way also, your command of english might be so bad that you don't understand what goes on outside of your immigrant circle. Our government is far too lenient and too accomodating to non-assimilators, and illegal alien anchors.

We can decide if that is true or not.

It remains, if you want to become a US citizen, you must speak fluent English. That is beyond debate. The rest is just rot and needs to be dismissed like the rot it is. You don't have to remind me what is going on. Our government is not "lenient", it is utterly corrupted.

I'm not just reminding you; this forum is aimed at the entire state

About 10 years ago I rented a room to a woman who had been born in Camarillo, Ca but her mother raised her in Mexico. So she was a US citizen, but spoke very little English. She didn't have to learn English to become a citizen, she was by birth. But probably in her mind she was Mexican. There are a number of situations like this I suppose. We know they come here to drop a baby, and often they leave once giving birth. So as a result, we have legal citizens who are no more American than someone from China, except on paper. We need to change the 14th Amendment.

We don't need to change anything, we just need to enforce the correct interpretation.
