Ronald Reagan
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.

His administration also faced challenges such as the Iran-Contra affair and economic issues, including inflation and unemployment.
If we're going to put those young men out there, they're entitled to have every technological aid that can ensure that they can do the job.
Despite my reservations on section 7, I am gladly signing the orphan drug bill.
This legislation exemplifies the proper role of government in helping meet legitimate needs in those cases where the free market alone can't do the job.
By definition, an orphan drug is one that treats a disease that affects 200,000 or fewer individuals.
Susan S. Robfogel has the experience and qualifications necessary to serve on the Federal Service Impasses Panel.
I am withholding my approval of S. 2623, which would amend the Tribally Controlled Community Colleges Assistance Act of 1978 and extend its authorities through 1987.
Such a provision unconstitutionally encroaches on the principle of separation of powers that is at the foundation of our government.
Education is critical to economic betterment for all elements of our society.
I cannot overemphasize the importance of the complex task facing the Commission.
It provides an indication of the various response options which may be considered if it becomes necessary to implement any of the emergency authorities.
I hereby transmit the Comprehensive Energy Emergency Response Procedures Report.
It is my hope that Congress will reconsider legislation extending the Act early in the next session and enact a bill which both advances the program's objectives and meets the Administration's objections to S. 2623.
I ask that we all keep the fundamental objective in view—to preserve an effective deterrent while moving forward with negotiations to reach equitable and verifiable arms reductions.
Such a declaration is wholly unnecessary to the continuation of a successful program of Federal assistance to tribally controlled community colleges.
I view the celebration as an opportunity to increase public awareness of our Nation's achievements in aviation and space flight and to rededicate ourselves to the spirit of excellence which has brought us so far so fast.
I am taking this action with reluctance, because my Administration is deeply committed to providing educational opportunities for American Indians.
This vague nonstatutory language could be interpreted by the courts in a variety of ways.
I do hereby designate the year beginning January 1, 1983, as the Bicentennial of Air and Space Flight.
When the program of assistance to tribally controlled community colleges was originally conceived, the Congress contemplated use of existing community facilities.
It could establish a highly undesirable precedent for making all Indian social service programs a part of the Federal government's 'very general' trust responsibility.
