Why spend tax dollars for immigrants’ English needs?

I am appalled that immigrants coming to this country expect the government to pay for their English lessons. One would think that if a person was so anxious to change his or her whole life and move to another country they would at least have the courtesy to learn the language of that country.

I feel our tax dollars would be better spent on things that really need it  — homelessness, health care, etc.

Kudos to Maureen Bader for taking a stand on a subject no one else seems to be brave enough to speak out about.
