A new study says Georgia doesn’t do enough to teach immigrants English. The study is by the Migration Policy Institute in Washington, D.C. Georgia has one of the fastest-growing immigrant populations in the country. The study found that only 32,000 immigrants – legal and unlawful -- were enrolled in federally-funded English-language classes in 2005. There are hundreds of thousands of immigrants in Georgia. The study says Georgia’s immigrants would need 72-million hours of lessons to become proficient.
