Government shouldn't tax away a man or woman's incentives to work, save, and invest.

The budget I'm proposing will meet the Gramm-Rudman target.

Like your family, the Federal Government should live within its means.

The American people expect us to work together to eliminate the deficit.

Gramm-Rudman has begun to put the monster of big spending into a cage, and we won't let that monster out.

You can't have it both ways.

This action is being taken in accordance with Title V of the Trade Act of 1974 (the Act), as amended.

I have determined that the following beneficiary developing countries have taken or are taking steps to afford internationally recognized worker rights.

I am writing to inform you of my intent to withdraw Romania and Nicaragua and suspend Paraguay from the list of beneficiary developing countries under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) effective 60 days after the date of this…

I have determined, based on that advice and on the considerations described in sections 501 and 502(c) of the Act, that such waivers are in the national economic interest of the United States.

After careful review, I have determined that Romania, Nicaragua, and Paraguay are not taking steps to afford their workers internationally recognized worker rights.

I have received the advice of the United States International Trade Commission as to any industries in the United States which would likely be adversely affected by such waivers.

I have also asked HHS to add the AIDS virus to the list of contagious diseases for which immigrants and aliens seeking permanent residence in the United States can be denied entry.

But to live in a land of peace and hope is not just the American dream; it's the dream of all people, of all lands.

The more than 1,000 signatures of the charter to date have had influence far beyond their numbers.

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and laws of the United States of America, including section 144 of Public Law 99-500 and section 144 of Public Law 99-591, it is hereby ordered as follows:

Despite imprisonment and intimidation, chartists have persisted in issuing numerous documents.

Let us remember that respect for those rights, for the freedom and dignity of individuals, is also the bedrock on which any true and enduring peace between our countries must be built.

Peace is built not just on agreements about arms reduction but on understanding between peoples.

The Committee shall terminate on December 31, 1987, unless sooner extended.

Charter 77 served for 10 years as a champion of civil and human rights.

Weapons don't build trust, mistrust builds weapons.

I believe that the preferable solution is to open foreign markets, not to close our own.

I intend to take or to authorize all appropriate action in response to any future failure by the Government of Canada to meet the objectives and commitments of the Understanding.

This increase shall go into effect on December 31, 1986, and will terminate when the Government of Canada begins to collect the export charge on exports of certain softwood lumber products.
