The English-only movement, also known as the Official English movement, is a political
movement for the use of only the English language in official United States government operations through the establishment of English as the
only official
language in the US. The US has never had a legal
policy proclaiming an official national language. However, at some times and
places, there have been various moves to promote or require the use of English,
such as in American Indian boarding schools. Some language selection policies have been implemented at
the state level.
