Jang (2000, 2002) and Kim (2001) claimed that English subject raising is a kind of V2 phenomena widely manifested in Germanic languages. Jang claimed that the reason why English subjects raise from the Spec of vP to the Spec of TP is to maintain the V2 order since verbs cannot be in the second position in sentences after verb movement to T if the subjects do not raise to the Spec of TP. However, there is a problem with that claim. I argue that English subject raising cannot be considered a V2 phenomenon, since main verbs in English do not raise to T overtly and can remain in the second position after the subjects even before the subject raising. Also, I argue that Case theoretic accounts by Martin (1999) and Bošković (2001) of English subject raising are problematic too, since subjects can be assigned Case without raising to the Spec of T according to Chomsky (1999, 2000, 2001). I suggest that English subjects raise from the Spec of vP to the Spec of T due to the EPP or OCC feature of T.
