Sound public policy requires a continuing appraisal of the relation of Federal educational activities to the educational needs and goals of the Nation and to its educational systems and institutions.
Richard Nixon
The Public Record
Richard Milhous Nixon was the 37th President of the United States, serving from January 20, 1969, until his resignation on August 9, 1974. A member of the Republican Party, he previously held the office of Vice President under Dwight D. Eisenhower from 1953 to 1961. Nixon's presidency is noted for significant foreign policy achievements, including the historic opening of relations with China and the policy of détente with the Soviet Union. Domestically, he is recognized for establishing the Environmental Protection Agency and implementing various social programs.
And I personally shall see that all negotiations, any efforts which could lead to that permanent peace, not only between Egypt and Israel but between the other countries involved, have the full and complete support of the Government of the…
The Secretary, with the assistance of the Assistant Secretary for Education, shall identify the education needs and goals of the Nation and from time to time shall recommend to the President policies for promoting the progress of education.
Now, the announcement we have made today is only a first step, but it is a very significant step.
Executive Order No. 11318 of December 5, 1966 and Executive Order No. 11351 of May 22, 1967 are hereby superseded.
I AM deeply saddened by the death of Fred Seaton, a valued friend of more than 20 years.
Nothing in this order shall be construed as modifying or terminating any other authority heretofore delegated by the President to the Administrator of Veterans' Affairs.
This, I would say, is the first significant step toward a permanent peace in the Mideast.
Nothing in this order shall be construed as subjecting any Federal agency, or any function vested by law in, or assigned pursuant to law to, any Federal agency, to the authority of any other Federal agency.
The Director of the Office of Management and Budget is hereby designated and empowered to exercise, without approval, ratification, or other action of the President, the authority of the President.
The Federal Procurement Regulations, the Armed Services Procurement Regulations, and, to the extent necessary, any supplemental or comparable regulations issued by any agency of the executive branch shall, following consultation with the…
Recent developments have emphasized the critical importance of energy to the prosperity and stability of the international economy.
The United States is undertaking this initiative as a constructive and positive step, consistent with the publicly stated views of a number of oil producing nations which have called for a consultative relationship between producers and…
As we face gasoline shortages and an increasing demand for public transportation, we should do all we can to afford local officials genuine flexibility to use Federal-Aid Highway funds to improve mass transit if they so desire.
I urge the Congress to act early in the next session to relax the charter prohibition uniformly with respect to both the Federal-Aid Highway program and the Urban Mass Transportation program.
Accordingly, in order to protect the fundamental structure of our government of three separate but equal branches, I must and do respectfully decline to produce the materials called for in your subpoenas.
I am withholding my signature from H.R. 10511 because this legislation would work directly against that objective.
I strongly supported legislation which applied uniformly to both the Federal-Aid Highway program and the Urban Mass Transportation program.
To produce the material you now seek would unquestionably destroy any vestige of confidentiality of Presidential communications, thereby irreparably impairing the constitutional functions of the Office of the Presidency.
Incurring these adverse consequences by complying with your subpoena would, on the other hand, serve no legislative purpose which I can discern.
Formulation of sound public policy requires that the President and his personal staff be able to communicate among themselves in complete candor, and that their tentative judgements, their exploration of alternatives, and their frank…
It is essential that our communities' mass transit companies can use their buses to produce badly needed charter revenues, and I will continue to press for this balanced flexibility.
This advantage outweighs the disadvantages I have mentioned, I have signed H.R. 11333 into law.
I am greatly pleased that many millions of Americans will enjoy an improved financial situation because of this legislation.
Few people have captured in song and words the rich heritage of the American spirit as did Tex.
