Gerald Ford

Tonight, I take pleasure in announcing that I intend to seek full funding for the Cultural Challenge Grant program over the next 3 years.

I repeat that the Internal Revenue Service, the FBI, the Joint Committee on Taxation, two committees in the House and in the Senate, and an overwhelming majority of the Members of the House and Senate believe the testimony.

I fear that total subsidization might bring with it the attendant problems of control and censorship.

I do have a brief opening statement.

The people we recognize with this legislation today fought alongside of us for these ideals.

Her visits abroad have given the word real meaning--'ambassador.'

Martha Graham has been doing that for as long as most of us can remember.

This legislation that I'm signing today provides that any person who served during World War I or World War II as a member of any armed force of the Government of Czechoslovakia or Poland and participated while so serving in armed conflict…

I believe that the courts should be permitted to rule in these cases in due course.

Her innovations were so original that one startled traditionalist was reported to have said, 'How long do you intend, Martha, to keep this up?'

I am also concerned that my approval of H.R. 4654 could inappropriately predispose the court's ruling.

Let me assure you that we in the Federal Government are going to do our part, Martha, to encourage the Martha Grahams of the future.

It's a good program, and we're lucky to have it.

I want to reduce and decrease your taxes.

I am willing to say no, not only by exercising the Presidential veto but by calling for positive, imaginative alternatives to government by Washington decree.

Jerry Ford loves Jersey just like Jersey loves Jerry.

You have learned what it's like when a candidate faces the voters with a smile and then turns his back on them later.

I have approved S. 2657, the Education Amendments of 1976.

The American people want a government that will promise only what it will deliver and will deliver everything that it promises.

You are concerned, the American people are concerned, and you all have good reason to be concerned.

The Ford administration has achieved the peace, and we are strong and diplomatically skillful.

Jerry Ford supports that deduction.

I think the American people have been overtaxed, overburdened, and with Jerry Ford as President, we're going to change that in the next 4 years.

Inflation is half of what it was when I became President.

Tax reform means tax reduction.
