"That's why it's important to ensure that language access is afforded to everyone, regardless of who you are, where you come from."

- State Senator Fabian Donate, Deputy Majority Whip, says that while we have a national rhetoric of designating English as a national language, it doesn’t help individuals who speak a different language at home. He explains when we look at bilingual education, healthcare, government services or voter access, it’s not about what language takes precedence over another, rather it’s about ensuring citizens of the state have the rightful resources to participate.
