I get it. In order for the democrats illegal workforce to be competitive with middle class citizens, they have to learn English. Taxpaying citizens should not thank you for stabbing them in the back.
Employers who regularly employ 25 or more workers are required to help any employee who discloses a literacy issue and requests support in enrolling in an adult literacy education program, as long as doing so does not place an undue burden on the employer.
