Arizona makes English official
November 9, 2006

Arizona voters overwhelmingly made English the state's official language Tuesday, supporting a measure that also calls on local governments to promote its pre-eminence.
The ballot initiative, viewed by many as a backlash against illegal immigration, passed with 74 percent of the vote. It does contain exemptions for "areas where foreign language use is protected," including emergency medical services.
"English is essential to the promise of equal opportunity in America," said K.C. McAlpin, executive director of ProEnglish, a Virginia-based group that supports making English the official language of the United States.
