I am therefore accepting with regret his resignation as Chief of Staff, effective today.
Don Regan has served the administration and the Nation with distinction for 6 years.
The administration opposes enactment of H.R. 348 because it is unnecessary.
I want you to know how deeply grateful I am for all that you have done for this Administration and for our country.
