Ronald Reagan

We seek a global, effectively verifiable ban on chemical weapons.

It should not be viewed as a luxury added on at extra cost but as a process for increasing the efficiency and quality of our lives.

This is bad credit policy.

We're making America safe and secure again for our children.

Listen, I asked for ice but this is ridiculous.

We are one people, and we are one in that which drew our forebears here—the love of 'freedom's holy Light.'

We place great importance on these exchanges.

The American people were fed up.

It is my hope that the Awards competition and public recognition of our federal 'best' will encourage greater federal leadership in, and attention to, good design.

I'm very pleased to welcome you all to the White House today.

I have today reluctantly signed S. 1691, a bill containing amendments to the Veterans Administration (VA) home loan guaranty law.

I am signing S. 1691 into law.

I call upon the Governors of the States, Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana Islands, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and American Samoa, the Mayor of the District of Columbia, and the people of the United States to observe this day with…

Isn't it about time that Washington followed the lead of the States and passed a constitutional amendment to balance the budget?

The administration has no objection to enactment of H.R. 3428.

I believe the majority—who join me in rejecting new taxes.

The administration opposes enactment of H.R. 2873 because it would unnecessarily restrict the ability of the Department of Defense to structure contracts to accommodate exceptional cases involving work performed overseas.

It is unwise. It is uncalled for.

Simple prudence, a simple sense of responsibility, would make it possible to meet the deficit reduction targets with no new taxes.

The distortions, the misrepresentations, and lies must be answered and must be rejected.

You have my deepest gratitude for your service to our Nation.

I do not believe that nominees to the Supreme Court should have to pass litmus tests administered by single-interest lobbies.

It will not be tolerated by me or the American people.

This country's strength is based not on what's inside the beltway here in Washington.

I have been fortunate to have had someone of your abilities and dedication as Chairman of the Council for the past six years.
