When did the us vote for a national language?
The United States has never had a nationwide vote for a national language. The Constitution does not provide for nationwide referendums. Congress has never passed any official act requiring English as the official (de jure) language of the United States. English is the de facto national language, in that the Constitution and all federal laws are made in English. There have been many attempts to make English the official national language but these tries have always failed. About half of the states in the US have made English the official state language (including California); many states (including Texas, New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio) have no official state language; and several states are officially multilingual or de facto multilingual (Hawaii, New Mexico, Louisiana, Maine).
