The US Federal Government has no official language. There is no strict criteria for all things being done in English.

However, many State Governments have designated English as their official Language. California is one, I believe this was done in 1986 or thereabouts. Basically enforcing that state government communication and paperwork has to be in english. Which begs the question, why are some Gubernatorial debates held in languages other than English, and why does the DMV/voter's paperwork offer so many alternative languages if English is the official language?
