People can speak or learn any language they like, but if they want to interface with anything paid for by tax dollars it has to be English.

Isn't that what the Senate is trying to do?

That seems pretty simple and straightforward to me.
Actually, it isn't what they are trying to do. They aren't that ambitious.

I assume, as part of your plan, you won't be collecting tax dollars from non-English speakers.

And further, when, in 50 years, the majority of the people in the US are hispanic, I assume you aren't going to bitch when they make Spanish the official language and ban government documents in English.
