The Public Record
Ronald Wilson Reagan was an American politician and actor who served as the 40th president of the United States from 1981 to 1989. A member of the Republican Party, he previously held the office of governor of California from 1967 to 1975. Reagan's presidency is noted for significant tax cuts, a strong anti-communist foreign policy, and the deregulation of various industries. His administration also faced challenges such as the Iran-Contra affair and economic issues, including inflation and unemployment.

We in the administration value highly our relationship with the countries of the Pacific.
This Administration has already taken many steps to deal with the steel import problem.
I have determined today, under Section 203 of the Trade Act, that import relief is not in the national economic interest.
It is not in the national economic interest to take actions which put at risk thousands of jobs.
Resist continuing protectionist pressures, to reduce barriers to trade, and to make renewed efforts to liberalize and expand trade.
