Answer Question
In your own words can you tell us you want to accomplish with your legislation?
What does your proposed legislation limit or prohibit?
Have you been surprised by the vehemence of some of the reaction?
Some advocacy groups and the media have attacked you personally, accusing you of racism or of having your facts wrong. How do you respond to those charges?
Critics have made the point on your business web site, you offer services in Spanish, while you advocate making English the official language for government business in Farmer Branch. They don't seem to see the difference between a private business choosing to do something, and government being required to do business in other languages. That's not really a conflict, is it?
Do you think the media has treated you and this issue fairly?
The city attorney is drafting your proposed ordinance. What's the next step?
You spent most of your life in Farmers Branch and this is your first term on the city council. Has this made you want to rethink holding office, or has it made you more determined?
What would you like people to know about you, your position, what's next for you, or anything else you don't think you've had a fair hearing on?
