Can’t they just reject it on the grounds that America uses English as the de facto language? In Texas they might also allow a Spanish sign but that wouldn’t provoke the same xenophobia.
- vineyardmike 4y agoAmerica has no official language. In part for this reason. All languages are welcome.

- SauciestGNU 4y agoI believe you are actually entitled to use Welsh, and the courts should provide you with an interpreter.

Based on the civil rights act, it is considered discrimination based on nationality to discriminate based on English proficiency, and therefore illegal. https://www.lep.gov/ https://www.lep.gov/
