"The Carnegie Corporation in Autumn 2002 surveyed 1,002 foreign-born adults. Over 66% of the foreign-born adults agreed that immigrants to the United States should be required to learn English. 73% of the foreign-born adults interviewed said schools should eliminate bilingual education and teach English to immigrants upon arrival in the United States. Over 60% of the adults disapproved of bilingual teaching in the schools: all students should be taught in English."
