Senate Passes Immigration Ammendements

I am not quite as mad at teh Seante as I was a few weeks ago. They have passed two long needed ammendments that will likely be enacted into law. Firt we are getting a border fence:

The Senate voted to build 370 miles of triple-layered fencing along the Mexican border Wednesday and clashed over citizenship for millions of men and women who live in the United States illegally.

Amid increasingly emotional debate over election-year immigration legislation, senators voted 83-16 to add fencing and 500 miles of vehicle barriers along the southern border.

Second it looks like English may be on its way to becoming our official language:

The Senate voted Thursday to make English the national language of the United States. Sort of.

Moments after the 63-34 vote, it decided to call the mother tongue a 'common and unifying language.'
