Ronald Reagan: “I join millions of Americans expressing profound disappointment at the decisions announced by the Supreme Court.”

America's freedom does not belong to just one nation.

We must and will dedicate ourselves as a Nation to continue this effort, and to stand in solidarity with those who resist, until the blessings of democracy, freedom, and respect for human dignity are assured throughout the world.

Naturally, I heartily approve.

I expressed to President Gorbachev my confidence that the work we began together at Geneva in 1985 will continue under the Bush administration.
