Of course the companies should be allowed to require employees speak English. English is our language.

What is silly is this is already settled in law by OSHA. If it is a safety matter, the answer is YES. In industry, many plants require engish only safety tests. If you cannot pass it, you don’t go to work....

Some fire department in California either fired a foreman or was planning to because he didn’t speak SPANISH last year./

Stupid poll......they should be required to speak ENGLISH. It is always a plus for any employee to be able to speak other languages.
