Ronald Reagan actually said...

"This bill, carefully crafted during hours of discussion with members of both parties, brings with it fresh hope of economic progress for all Americans."

"There is now only one bill before the House—the bill introduced today—that offers true tax relief and a new economic beginning."

"Your presence inspires confidence that we can calm any of the tensions that inevitably arise between two such close neighbors."

"The personal friendship that we're developing must be equaled by the closeness between our two peoples."
