I have gone to the website and signed the petition. This is something that we all need to support if not we will end up with sections of the country where english is not spoken or written. A good example is little Cuba in Miami.

More than one language in a country can and will be divisive

A good example is little Cuba in Miami.

There is NO "little Cuba" in Miami. There is Little Havana, but it is largely Nicaraguan and Honduran now. The only Cubans there are 65 and older now. EVERY 2nd generation Cuban American I know (and I know many) prefers English except when speaking with their parents.

The whole language issue is a joke.
