Hi--
I just noticed that the U.S. Supreme Court
heard a case today brought by a Spanish-speaking resident
against the state of Alabama, re: not allowing the
drivers test in Spanish.
There's a pretty interesting story about it
on ABC's website,
http://abcnews.go.com/sections/us/DailyNews/scotus_englishonly010116.html
This might be of interest to students as well.
Best wishes,
Anna
