Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) appeared on Real America's Voice to discuss her latest bill making English the official language of the United States. When asked why Congress hadn't already made English the official language, Rep. Greene provided a long-winded answer, sharing that Congress deserves total blame for a wide variety of problems and that an official English language designation is just the tip of the iceberg.
The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution are both written in English.
I am introducing a bill to recognize English as our official language to restore national unity and culture.

"This bill that I'll be introducing this week will make English the official language of the United States of America, and I think this is extremely important, as we are turning very hard into an Americans first response, and this in English should be recognized as the official language of the United States," said Rep. Greene.
She continued, sharing surprising statistics regarding the establishment of official languages around the world.
"I'll give you guys a quick stat. There's approximately 178 countries around the world that have an official language, and there's something like less than five countries around the world that don't have an official language, and for some reason, the United States is one of those. So it's time to make English the official language," said Greene.
Furthermore, one of the interviewers was surprised that the United States had not provided English as an official language. She asked what kind of problems would arise if this bill does not pass.
Greene's response:
"Well, I think we're already in big problems. And again, if I could answer your question, I could solve the problems here in Washington. But after all, I do serve in Congress, and Congress is completely responsible for the $36 trillion in debt for the American people. Congress is responsible for funding decades of Foreign Wars. Congress is responsible for the invasion across our southern border. Congress is responsible for all the problems that Americans are suffering with high inflation, over regulation, high taxes. Congress is responsible for these things, so it should be no surprise that Congress never made English the official language of the United States of America."
Marjorie Taylor Greene represents Georgia's 14th Congressional District.
