America has no "official language". In fact Spanish was spoken in 80% of what became the united states long before English was. English only the main language in the original 13 states.. Pretty much all other states spokle French or Spanish.

The point I'm making is it's not uncommon for the original immigrants to not speak English. However it's pretty much 100% that their offspring one generation later will. It doesn't matter what country they come from it's almost always the same result.
