U.S.ENGLISH, Inc. is the nation's oldest, largest citizens' action group
dedicated to preserving the unifying role of the English language in the
United States. Founded in 1983 by the
late Senator S.I. Hayakawa, an immigrant himself,
U.S. English now has 1.8 million members nationwide.
Mauro E. Mujica, an architect and international
businessman as well as an immigrant from Chile, has been the Chairman/CEO of U.S.ENGLISH Inc.
since 1993 and prior to that, served on the Board of Directors beginning in 1992. Because
of his commitment to keeping this nation unified through a common language
and his own experience as an immigrant, Mr. Mujica has succeeded in making
U.S.ENGLISH Inc. one of the fastest-growing interest groups in the country.
U.S.ENGLISH believes that the passage of English as the official language will help to
expand opportunities for immigrants to learn and speak English, the single greatest
empowering tool that immigrants must have to succeed.
