Essay

According to the 2010 census, 20.3% of the population of the United States (ages 5 and up) live in a home in which a language other than English is spoken. Advocates for providing government programs to assist non-English speakers are convinced that, with the increasing non-white population in the United States, this proportion has probably increased. They plan to conduct a survey, and if they find the proportion of people who live in such homes has increased, they will organize a campaign to increase government investment in these assistance programs.
-In the larger sample the proportion of people living in a home in which a language other than English is spoken was 20.8%. The consultant decided this increase was statistically significant. Now that the group is convinced the proportion has increased, why might they still choose not to organize the campaign?
