This is indeed good news for our people in the southwest whether they speak 
Spanish, Dine, Yaqui, Kikapu, etc.  The movement across the USA is to make 
"english only" counties and states in order to dismantle bilingual education 
programs that seek to mainstream students whose English skills need 
improvement.  The "english only" campaign seeks also to dismantle programs
that 
assist people who speak a language other than english and hence deny them 
rights to vote, legal court proceedings, etc.  It is nice to see the Supreme 
Court make a human rights decision.

Bravo to the U.S. Supreme Court which upheld a ruling by the Arizona Supreme 
Court striking down a 1988 English-only state constitutional amendment.  The  
Arizona measure had made English the official "language of the ballot, the 
public schools, and all government functions and actions."
