Moreno Presses Intel For Update on Factory in Ohio

WASHINGTON -Today, Senator Bernie Moreno (R-OH) introduced a new bill to designate English as the official language of the United States. Senator Moreno's bill would mandate that all official functions of the U.S. government to be conducted in English and require applicants for U.S. citizenship demonstrate the ability to read and understand the English language.

"JD Vance was right-English is the official language of the United States and, as one of the only naturalized citizens serving in the Senate, I should know," said Moreno. "The proudest moment of my life was when I became an American citizen at 18, a process that showed me just how foundational the English language is to the American way of life. It's long past time we enshrine this simple fact into law."

Sens. J.D. Vance (R-OH) and Kevin Cramer (R-ND) previously introduced similar legislation during the 118th Congress.
