Georgia Senate Urged to Honor Reagan
National group endorses February 6th to be recognized for Reagan, democracy
Washington, D.C. - The Georgia House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed a resolution on Wednesday that would designate February 6th as “Ronald Reagan Day” in the state. The Ronald Reagan Legacy Project, a national group dedicated to memorializing the late president, applauds the efforts of lawmakers honoring the former president and urges the state senate to approve the resolution.
In his two terms as president, Reagan worked to rid the threat of communism overseas while boosting the American spirit. Despite the strength of growing communist states and a struggling economy, he pushed forward to succeed in halting the expansion of U.S. government and non-democratic governments abroad. His “Reaganomics” spawned one of the greatest periods of economic prosperity and development in American history.
“Ronald Reagan’s birthday is a time for Americans to recognize and appreciate the moral leadership that this great man provided,” said Grover Norquist, chairman of the RRLP. “He led the fight for Democracy and his successes forever changed the international community.”
Georgia currently has three memorials dedicated to the late president, a park and two highways. Despite a majority of Georgian voters selecting native-son Carter in the 1980 election, Reagan’s humble mannerisms and valiant character won him a place in the hearts of the Georgian people in his run for re-election in 1984. He swept the state, winning over 60 percent of the votes.
“It is important that we take every opportunity to recognize President Reagan, for in his nature can be found the essence of America: brave, bold leadership,” concluded Norquist.
The RRLP seeks to name at least one monument to President Reagan in each of America’s counties, and in nations that were once Communist. RRLP Chairman Grover Norquist, a long time Washington insider, is available for interviews. Please contact John Kartch at 202-785-0266 or jkartch@atr.org

National Group Supports “Ronald Reagan Memorial Parkway” in New York
State Senator Libous introduces bill to honor Ronald Reagan
WASHINGTON- Today, the Ronald Reagan Legacy Project (RRLP), a leading force in preserving the ideas of American’s 40th president, applauded the efforts of State Senator Thomas W. Libous (R-C: Binghamton) to honor the former president and urged members of the New York legislature to join Sen. Libous in supporting Ronald Reagan’s legacy of freedom and prosperity. Sen. Libous introduced Senate Bill 6425, which would designate a portion of the state route 434 in the County of Tioga as Ronald Reagan Memorial Parkway.
If passed, Senate Bill 6425 would dedicate the state route 434 from Sulphur Springs Road in the town of Owego to the western boundary of the town of Vestal, in the county of Broome. Ronald Reagan Memorial Parkway would join Warwick, New York’s Ronald Reagan Boulevard as the second dedication to the former president in the state.
“As Chairman of the Transportation Committee, Senator Libous’s leadership in preserving the legacy of Ronald Reagan is commendable,” said Grover Norquist, president of the Ronald Reagan Legacy Project. “There are many ways to honor the former president’s accomplishments renaming state route 434 would be a fine example of one. The legislators in New York should take this opportunity to honor one of the greatest presidents of the 20th century.”
With his tax relief and defeat of the Soviet Empire, Ronald Reagan bestowed pride upon Americans and freedom upon the world. In the 1984 reelection, New York was one of the 49 states that embraced Reagan’s proven leadership as 3,664,763 New Yorkers voted Reagan for four more years.
“Twenty five years after Reagan’s first inauguration, it is more important than ever to preserve his legacy for future generations,” said Norquist. “By supporting efforts such as the dedication of Ronald Reagan Memorial Parkway, New York state senators and assembly members will help Reagan’s ideas to triumph.”
The RRLP is committed to preserving the legacy of one of America’s greatest presidents. Among it’s aims, the Project seeks to name at least one monument to President Reagan in each of America’s counties, and in nations that were once Communist.

Inauguration of Freedom and Prosperity
25 years ago, Reagan declared “government is not the solution”
WASHINGTON- On January 20, 1981, President Ronald Reagan was inaugurated on the terrace of the West Front of the Capitol. Twenty-five years ago today, Americans and lovers of freedom worldwide listened as he laid the course for his administration.
A man born in a small Midwest town of humble background, Ronald Reagan worked with Republicans and Democrats to enact a bold agenda that restored accountability and common sense to government. His economic policies of tax cuts, deregulation and choice for the American taxpayer led to an unprecedented economic expansion.
“Reagan’s inauguration signaled the beginning of a time of freedom and prosperity for millions,” said Grover Norquist, president of the Ronald Reagan Legacy Project. “His legacy will continue to grow over the next 25 years as we preserve the confidence he restored in America.”
In his first inaugural address, Ronald Reagan set the stage for reducing government interference in the daily lives of citizens, relieving the burden on taxpayers, and stimulating the United States economy. “So, as we begin, let us take inventory. We are a nation that has a government--not the other way around. And this makes us special among the nations of the Earth. Our Government has no power except that granted it by the people. It is time to check and reverse the growth of government which shows signs of having grown beyond the consent of the governed.”
“On the 25th anniversary of Reagan’s first inaugural address, it is more important than ever to reflect on the late President’s impact on the world as we know it,” said Norquist. “Reagan’s call for government to live within its means is an ongoing lesson for lawmakers and decision makers on all levels of government.”
The RRLP seeks to name at least one monument to President Reagan in each of America’s counties, and in nations that were once Communist. RRLP Chairman Grover Norquist, a long time Washington insider, is available for interviews. Please contact John Kartch at 202-785-0266 or jkartch@atr.org.
