3 1. Page 1, by inserting after line 29 the
4 following:
5 "In designating the English language as the
6 official language of the state for such reports and
7 publications, it is not the intent of the general
8 assembly to discourage residents of the state from
9 learning, or maintaining proficiency in, a language
10 other than the English language. The general assembly
11 encourages bilingualism to facilitate a better
12 understanding of other cultures, to enhance
13 appreciation for the diversity and heritage of the
14 citizens of this state, and to promote state tourism
15 and international commerce."
Roll call was requested by Myers of Johnson and Osterhaus of
