Missouri Ahead of the Game in Dealing with Illegal Immigrants

I don't think asking visitors to respect our culture and laws is such an awful thing...do you? Missouri has it all over most of us....especially Massachusetts where they give everything away if your illegal. And it's NOT undocumented - it's ILLEGAL!

In 2007, the Missouri General Assembly approved HJR 7 to place on the ballot a proposed constitutional amendment designating English as the official language of Missouri. Voters then went to the polls and approved the measure with nearly 90 percent voting in favor. With that, English became the official language for all governmental proceedings in Missouri. It also means no individual has the right to demand government services in a language other than English. A common language is the cornerstone of a cohesive and united state and country. Ensuring that English is our official language is simply common sense."
