No, they really don't, unless you consider a strong motivation to learn the language of the land an interest. You could certainly argue that it is. You have to consider also whether the interests of immigrants should come before the interests of citizens. There have been and will continue to be many, many immigrant populations in the US; most of those populations have not made strenuous attempts to avoid the learning of English. My grandmother was a non-English speaking immigrant to the US in the early 1900's. She learned English and made do. The Canadian French in Quebec are also protective of their native French, and I applaud them. We are a nation of immigrants, and it is not Immigration that is the problem. If I moved to a country where the language is Polish, I would learn Polish, and I would make do, even if my Polish was not the best.
