Allow me to inject an opinion over and above the racial hatred in the
original post.

It is indeed unfair to insist that *recent*  immigrants be forced to
take a test in English.
They have not had enough time to learn it.

The solution is obvious:  Do away with bi-lingual education.   For
newly arrived
immigrants who do not know English, sit them down in a classroom and
teach them
ONLY English.   8 hours a day.  Do not allow them to study other
subjects in school until they
have sufficient mastery of English.
