Rep. Greene Advocates for English as Official U.S. Language

Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene from Georgia proposed on Monday that Congress should establish English as the official language of the United States. This suggestion came after comments made by Bad Bunny, who encouraged Americans to learn Spanish in preparation for his upcoming performance during the Super Bowl 60 Halftime Show.

Greene expressed her opinion in a post on X, stating, “Bad Bunny says America will take four months to learn Spanish before his evil and unwanted performance at Super Bowl halftime.” She added that this would be a fitting moment for Congress to consider her bill on making English the official language.

Furthermore, Greene criticized the NFL, saying they should put an end to what she described as “demonic sexual performances” during halftime shows.

Bad Bunny, a globally renowned artist, has sparked significant debate about his Halftime Show appearance. Some conservatives have voiced strong criticism over his choice as a performer.

The reggaeton star had previously mentioned that he refrained from touring in the U.S. due to fears about potential violence against his fans, reflecting broader concerns around immigrant safety.

Interestingly, the Trump administration has indicated that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will be involved in a game at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, coinciding with the event.

Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio, known professionally as Bad Bunny, expressed excitement about his Super Bowl performance, saying, “I know that people all over the world who love my music are happy too.” He even humorously remarked that if anyone didn’t catch his Spanish remarks, they now have “four months to learn.”

In an executive order signed by President Trump in March 2025, English was designated as the official language at the federal level in the U.S. This move contributes to a growing discussion around language and identity within the country.
