Abstract

A drastic increase in the number of ethnically and linguistically diverse immigrants has become the target of a heated controversy surrounding the exclusive use of the English language in the States. This paper examines the ideology relative to the English Only movement that has existed as a result of a pro-English initiative. The claims professed by the two major organizations devoted to passing English Only legislation, U.S. English and English First, are encapsulated, along with opposing views explored in this initiative. In American society which is traditionally characterized by pluralism, which tends to favor ideas such as multilingualism and multiculturalism, the concerns expressed by opponents have proven to stem from the recognition that the English Only movement and the resultant legislation passage would not necessarily function as an integrating force for the nation, and that English Only policies are most likely to serve a gatekeeping function that bars language minorities from access to political, social, and educational arenas.
