Before this act could be considered by the House of Representatives it had to be approved by the House Judiciary, and Education and the Workforce Committees. (en) Закон о единстве английского языка (англ. English Language Unity Act) — законопроект Конгресса США, выдвинутый с целью придания английскому языку статуса официального языка федерального правительства США. В случае его принятия все официальные процедуры федерального правительства США и правительств штатов будут осуществляться только на английском языке. Это также повлечёт за собой новые требования к претендентам на натурализацию в США — умение читать и в целом понимать английский язык, знание законодательства США, а также таких основополагающих документов как Декларация независимости и Конституция США. Кроме того, это потребует также проведения церемонии натурализации исключительно на английском языке. Для того, чтобы законопроект был рассмотрен Палатой представителей, он должен быть предварительно одобрен Судебным комитетом, а также комитетами по образованию и трудовым ресурсам Палаты представителей.
