The group behind Alaska's English-only law is trying to save its own initiative from certain death.

Alaskans for a Common Language filed an appeal with the Alaska Supreme Court. The group is challenging a judge's ruling which tossed the law.

The Native American Rights Fund and the Alaska Civil Liberties Union challenged the law on behalf of Native villages, teachers and state tourism workers.
