Rejecting and condemning the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s 
position that English-only employment rules violate title VII of the Civil 
Rights Act of 1964 as unjustified and unsupported by law, and for

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
DECEMBER 19, 2007 
Mr. BROUN of Georgia (for himself, Mr. BISHOP of Utah, Mr. WESTMORE-
LAND, Mr. FEENEY, Mr. CULBERSON, and Mr. BURGESS) submitted the 
following concurrent resolution; which was referred to the Committee on 
Education and Labor

Rejecting and condemning the Equal Employment Oppor-
tunity Commission’s position that English-only employ-
ment rules violate title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 
1964 as unjustified and unsupported by law, and for 
other purposes. 
Whereas the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission 
(EEOC) has filed suit against the Salvation Army claim-
ing that the Salvation Army’s requirement that its em-
ployees speak only English on the job is a violation of 
title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964;

Whereas the EEOC has filed similar suits against other em-
ployers on similar grounds, but has rarely prevailed in 
court; 
Whereas Federal courts have held, with only a few excep-
tions, that the EEOC’s position has no support in title 
VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; 
Whereas Federal courts rejected the EEOC’s position twice, 
immediately after the EEOC declared its position, by 
finding the EEOC’s position to be ‘‘illegal’’, ‘‘ultra 
vires’’, and ‘‘wrong’’. 
Whereas title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits 
employment discrimination on the basis of national origin 
and not on the basis of language; 
Whereas the fundamental error in the EEOC’s position is 
equating the language a person speaks with the person’s 
national origin; 
Whereas there may be rare circumstances in which an 
English-only employment rule is a pretext for intentional 
national origin discrimination, but in most cases such an 
employment rule has little or nothing to do with a per-
son’s national origin; 
Whereas there is no prohibition in title VII of the Civil 
Rights Act of 1964 against an employer’s decisions based 
on language choices; 
Whereas Federal courts have uniformly rejected equating lan-
guage and national origin, noting that national origin is 
an immutable characteristic, while language is both mu-
table and not representative of a person’s national origin; 
Whereas the EEOC’s unjustified policy of challenging em-
ployers’ English-only employment rules causes significant

SEC. 2. FINDINGS. 
Congress finds the following: 
(1) The stated intent of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act 
of 2002 was to restore confidence and integrity in 
our nation’s financial markets through increased 
transparency and accountability. 
(2) The regulatory interpretation of section 404 
of that Act has led to many unintended con-
sequences, such as— 
(A) diverting valuable resources away from 
other legitimate business needs; 
(B) creating massive and tedious docu-
mentation requirements; and 
(C) discouraging the public listing of both 
international 
and 
domestic 
companies 
on 
United States markets. 
(3) Nine out of ten complaints about the Sar-
banes-Oxley Act of 2002 are related to section 404. 
(4) Ninety percent of international small com-
panies have listed in international markets and not 
in the United States markets. 
(5) The out-of-pocket costs have been $4 mil-
lion to $6 million per accelerated filer, more than 50 
times original Securities and Exchange Commission 
estimates.
