Designating English as the official language of the state.

This bill designates English as the official language of Washington state for all state government operations. It requires state agencies to use English for official public records (like government documents) and meetings (as defined by law), though agencies may voluntarily provide multilingual materials alongside English. The bill prohibits state agencies from mandating non-English materials but allows interpreters at public meetings and explicitly protects private language use and business operations. It also encourages state institutions to promote English language classes for non-native speakers.
