Abstract

This paper not only examines the issues and implications that the passing of the English Only Amendment presents, but it also introduces an alternative piece of language legislation called The English Plus Bill. The paper details the history of linguistic conflict and also documents significant court cases and organizations that have a direct impact on both pieces of legislation. Using the arguments that are presented by these groups and through these court cases, a marketing campaign for the English Plus Bill is mapped out and presented.
