<p>To promote unity, cultivate a shared American culture for all 
citizens, ensure consistency in government operations, and create a 
pathway to civic engagement, it is in America’s best interest for the 
Federal Government to designate one — and only one — official language. 
 Establishing English as the official language will not only streamline 
communication but also reinforce shared national values, and create a 
more cohesive and efficient society.</p>



<p>Accordingly, this order designates English as the official language of the United States.</p>
