“The mayor of Dover has had a change of heart about providing information on the town’s website in Spanish, agreeing to allow a church leader to provide translations.

Mayor James Dodd had originally said that since Dover’s Latino residents live in the United States, they should be required to learn English. Although at least 60 percent of its residents are Latino, Dodd said it’s not up to the town to provide Spanish translations.”*
