This page was sent to you by: sagauro(a)rci.rutgers.edu. NATIONAL | February 13, 2007 Tennessee: Veto of 'English Only' Measure By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Mayor Bill Purcell vetoed a measure that would have made English the official language of Nashville, saying it was unconstitutional, unnecessary and mean-spirited. The measure, which was passed 23 to 14 last week by the Metro Council, required all government documents to be in English, except when multilingual communications were required by federal rules or were needed "to protect or promote public health, safety or welfare." It would take 27 council votes to override the veto. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/02/13/us/13brfs-english.html?ex=1172034000&en=4… ---------------------------------------------------------- ABOUT THIS E-MAIL This e-mail was sent to you by a friend through NYTimes.com's E-mail This Article service.

This story was sent to you by: eugene mcelroy -------------------- A town that wants illegal immigrants -------------------- A California citrus town hit hard by cold whether badly needs labor -- legal or illegal. Gregory Rodriguez February 11 2007 Lindsay, Calif. — THE IMMIGRATION debate can get pretty sloppy and emotional in the abstract, but not here in this Central Valley town that can't afford to let simplistic rhetoric overshadow facts.
