Amendment - Section 2

SECTION 2

There shall be one common language for the United States of America. It shall be the only language used by citizens in official business and communications with all federal, state, and local governments located within the several States and District of Columbia.

The common language shall be selected by the members of both the Senate and House of Representatives on the first day of business of the second calendar year following passage of this amendment. In the event of a tie, the deciding vote shall be cast by the President of the Senate.

Each subsequent 50 years Congress shall determine if the common language should change. A two-thirds majority is needed to change the common language. If the language changes, the change shall start within five years and be completed within twenty years.

Federal, state, or local government funds shall not be utilized to communicate to the citizens in any language other than the common one.
