On the recordFebruary 9, 2011
As the author of the legislation creating the Ronald Reagan Centennial Commission, I was asked by the Reagan Foundation to host a Special Order this afternoon, and I am honored to have many of my colleagues here to join us on this floor today. As a fellow Californian, I had the great privilege of spending some time with President Reagan in my early years here in Congress, and I can tell you that those times will be etched in my mind forever. Coincidentally, my own personal residence happens to be almost adjacent to the Ronald Reagan Library--in fact, only a few hundred yards away-- in Simi Valley, California. I simply can't say enough about how grateful I am for the opportunity to have known Ronald Reagan.
