“The IRS already provides forms and instructions in the Spanish language. I commend them for that. Obviously, we are now being told that, while the Hispanic population in America is very large, it will soon be the largest minority by far. And by middle of the next century, one out of every four Americans will be of Hispanic origin-- which will be the largest by far. This first amendment, that is currently sponsored by Senators D'Amato and McCain, would have the telephone help line mandated to provide communications in Spanish to those who can more easily communicate in Spanish. I indicated that we already have forms in Spanish. I am for English-plus, in America, which is English--clearly, we should all learn, but I think that instead of talking about English only, we should talk about plusing it up with other languages.”
