"Repealing the law would provide a severe disservice to immigrants themselves because it lowers the expectation for successful integration into American life. Diversity with integration is a society enriched. Diversity without integration is a society divided. In promoting English as our official language, state government is promoting an integrated society. Iowans deserve nothing less."
