"The decision to pass the amendment..."
"The decision to pass the amendment may ultimately rest with the voters. But I wanted to take this time, this opportunity to make sure my voice, as mayor of this city, is heard on this issue, and to assure that everyone fully understands the consequences of passing a law that will tie our hands in the global economy, that will detract from our appeal as an international tourist destination, and that will damage our reputation as a welcoming and friendly city."—Mayor Karl Dean speaking to the Metro Council on the proposal for an "English Only" amendment to the Metro Charter.
