I encourage the people of the United States to observe this day with appropriate ceremonies and activities and to support the Duck Stamp Program and other conservation efforts.
George H.W. Bush
The Public Record
George H.W. Bush was the 41st President of the United States, serving from January 20, 1989, to January 20, 1993. A member of the Republican Party, he previously held the office of Vice President under Ronald Reagan from 1981 to 1989. Bush was a World War II veteran and served in various roles within the U.S. government, including as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency from 1976 to 1977. His presidency is noted for significant events such as the Gulf War and the fall of the Berlin Wall, as well as his efforts in foreign policy and international diplomacy.
I have today signed S.J. Res. 246, a joint resolution of Congress 'calling upon the United Nations to repeal General Assembly Resolution 3379,' which declared Zionism to be 'a form of racism and racial discrimination.'
I call upon the people of the United States to observe that day with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities.
I have determined that the previous determination in Proclamation No. 5805 that the per capita gross national product of Bahrain for calendar year 1985 exceeded the applicable limit under section 504(f) of the 1974 Act was erroneous.
I wholly agree with the sentiments underlying this congressional repudiation of a totally counterproductive UNGA resolution.
I add my full endorsement as President of the United States to this otherwise nonbinding expression of congressional sentiment.
This peace must be achieved on the basis of United Nations Security Council Resolutions 242 and 338 and the principle of territory for peace.
I also want to reaffirm U.S. determination to pursue efforts toward a comprehensive, just, and lasting Middle East peace.
I have determined that certain technical rectifications to the HTS are necessary.
I particularly welcome the clear commitment by Japan to reduce further its current account surplus.
