Language restrictionist policymakers sought to close the loopholes in the law and fined Robert Meyers $25 fine for teaching Bible stories to 10-year-old children in German. In response, the parochial schools taught German during an extended recess period. The state court ruled that the act could not prevent schools from providing German language instruction outside of the hours of regular school study. church and schools filed suit against the act under the 14th Amendment.
1919, Nebraska passed the Siman Act, which made it illegal for any school, public or private, to provide any foreign language instruction to students below the 8th grade.
