Time for Reagan to Take His Place in History
National group dedicated to preserving Reagan’s legacy commends effort to memorialize Reagan’s speech at the Brandenburg Gate
Washington, D.C. – The Ronald Reagan Legacy Project (RRLP), a leading force in preserving the ideas of America’s 40th president, commends the efforts of Sen. Wayne Allard (R-CO) to honor Ronald Reagan’s legacy. On Monday, the 19th anniversary of Ronald Reagan’s groundbreaking speech at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, Sen. Allard introduced a resolution to authorize an artistic tribute to commemorate his historic speech to be placed in the Capitol.
On June 12, 1987, President Reagan, a stalwart defender of freedom and democracy, delivered his famous “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!” speech. His message was one of unity, prosperity and freedom; “…there stands before the entire world one great and inescapable conclusion: Freedom leads to prosperity. Freedom replaces the ancient hatreds among the nations with comity and peace. Freedom is the victor.”
“Senate Concurrent Resolution 100 offers a fitting tribute to a moment that has defined the course of our modern world,” said Grover Norquist, chairman of the RRLP. “Reagan led our nation and the world through one of the most dangerous times in history. His strong resolve and leadership brought us through the Cold War, inspired America, and substantially reduced the tax burden on this great country.”
The Ronald Reagan Legacy Project is dedicated to promoting the legacy of President Ronald Reagan's leadership by working toward one significant monument named after him in each of America's 50 states, as well as some dedication in every county in America. To date, more than 80 monuments have been dedicated to the former president, such as Mount Reagan in New Hampshire.
“Two years after his passing and nearly two decades after he called for one Berlin united in freedom, it is more important than ever to preserve his legacy for future generations,” concluded Norquist. “Today, I urge Congress to honor the greatest president of the 20th century and establish a tribute in the Capitol to Reagan’s historic speech.”
The RRLP is committed to preserving the legacy of one of America’s greatest presidents throughout the nation and abroad. Grover Norquist, chairman of the RLLP, is available for interviews regarding Ronald Reagan’s legacy and the group’s projects. Please contact John Kartch at (202)-785-0266 or jkartch@atr.org.

Reagan Honored in San Francisco
Veteran group dedicates building to 40th president
Washington, D.C. - Cathay Post #384 of the American Legion has honored Ronald Reagan by dedicating their building the Ronald Reagan Veteran Memorial Building. The Ronald Reagan Legacy Project (RRLP), a leading force in preserving the ideas of America’s 40th president, praises the organization and all efforts to memorialize President Reagan in California.
One of the most active veteran organizations in California, the Cathay Post #384, seeks to promote the contributions of the Chinese Americans who have defended our nation. As the organization honors the greatest president of the 20th century, Ronald Reagan had also recognized the important role of veterans in our society and their sacrifices for our country; “Veterans know better than anyone else the price of freedom, for they've suffered the scars of war. We can offer them no better tribute than to protect what they have won for us. That is our duty. They have never let America down. We will not let them down.”
"I applaud the efforts of the Cathay Post #384 for their efforts to honor the legacy of Ronald Reagan,” said Grover Norquist, chairman of the Ronald Reagan Legacy Project. “Naming their building in honor of Reagan is a fitting tribute to a man who worked to defeat the most significant threat to liberty in America’s history, the Soviet Union."
California, where Ronald Reagan served as governor from 1967 to 1975, overwhelmingly supported Reagan in his 1984 election with 57.5 percent of Californians casting a vote in favor of keeping him in the White House. The state of California has at least fourteen memorials dedicated to the late president, including the Ronald Reagan Elementary School in Bakersfield and the Ronald Reagan Federal Courthouse in Santa Ana.
“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,” said Norquist. “Citizens of every state should continue to advocate for dedications preserving the contributions of our 40th president for future generations.”
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

Pennsylvania Senate Honors Reagan
Keystone state senate designates June 5th as ‘Ronald Reagan Day’
Washington, D.C.- The Pennsylvania senate overwhelmingly passed a resolution last week that would designate June 5th, 2006, the second anniversary of Ronald Reagan’s death, as ‘Ronald Reagan Day’ in the state. The Ronald Reagan Legacy Project, a national group dedicated to memorializing the late president, commends the efforts of lawmakers honoring the former president.
In his two terms as president, Reagan engendered unprecedented worldwide progress through his international and domestic agendas. His defeat of Communism enhanced the security of the U.S. and moved the world towards peace and prosperity. Through his commitment to the free-market and limited government, Reagan cultivated an economic climate that gave rise to robust economic growth and individual empowerment.
“Ronald Reagan led the fight for democracy and restored the American spirit,” said Grover Norquist, chairman of the Ronald Reagan Legacy Project. “Two years after his passing and 25 years since he took office, it is more important than ever to preserve his legacy for future generations.”
Pennsylvania currently has two memorials dedicated to the late president, a road in Bucks County and a federal building in Harrisburg. Reagan’s vision for the world and his strong leadership won him a place in the hearts of the Pennsylvanian people. In the 1984 presidential election, Reagan won 53 percent of the vote.
“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.

NACTA-Pandering Bill Not Cleared for Takeoff
National group dedicated to preserving Reagan’s legacy condemns union giveaway
Washington, D.C. – The Ronald Reagan Legacy Project voiced its opposition to HR 5449, which would impede the ability of the Federal Aviation Administration to resolve its current labor dispute in a timely manner. HR 5449, expected to face a vote today, would cost taxpayers $1.9 billion over five years. The average air traffic controller makes $173,000 in pay and benefits; Congress doesn’t need to stack the deck in the union’s favor by using special rules and gimmicks.
In 1981, President Reagan stood strong against the Professional Air Traffic Controllers Union by firing more than 11, 000 air traffic controllers for staging an illegal strike. His decisive action and principled response demonstrated to many Americans that he was the leader they had been searching for.
“It is time for the Republican majority in Congress to follow the example of the greatest president of the 20th century,” said Grover Norquist, chairman of the RRLP. “Reagan led our nation and the world through one of the most dangerous times in history. On the other hand, support for HR 5449 is a betrayal of a great American’s legacy and a sneaky affront to the political process.”
The Ronald Reagan Legacy Project is dedicated to promoting the legacy of President Ronald Reagan's leadership by working toward one significant monument named after him in each of America's 50 states, as well as some dedication in every county in America. To date, more than 80 monuments have been dedicated to the former president, such as Mount Reagan in New Hampshire.
“Ronald Reagan’s courageous leadership and dedication won the love of the American people and inspired many of our current leaders to step forward and serve our country. He was responsible for restoring pride in America and his is a lesson we must never forget,” concluded Norquist. “Today, I urge Congress to follow the example of President Reagan and refuse to crumble under union pressure.”

Ronald Reagan’s Popularity Stands Strong
Americans name Reagan as best modern president in national survey
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Ronald Reagan’s legend continues to grow as he was named the best president since World War II. According to a Quinnipiac nationwide survey, Ronald Reagan beat out the other 11 presidents who have served through this era. The Ronald Reagan Legacy Project (RRLP), a leading force in preserving the ideas of America’s 40th President, congratulates the Reagan family for a much deserved honor.
This poll reaffirms last summer’s distinction of the “Greatest American” in a Discovery Channel competition. The Discovery Channel competition included some of the most respected Americans of all time including: Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Ben Franklin, Martin Luther King, Jr. and Thomas Jefferson. Also, a poll released by Gallup on February 18, 2005 also shows that Ronald Reagan is the most popular president in history.
“This most recent recognition of Ronald Reagan as the greatest modern president comes as no surprise,” said Grover Norquist, chairman of the RRLP. “Reagan’s strong resolve and leadership brought us through the Cold War, inspired America, and substantially reduced the tax burden on this great country.”
When he took office, Ronald Reagan inherited a nation of discontent and with his economic package spurred growth and created the longest peacetime economic expansion in history. His defense politics brought about the demise of the Soviet Union, bringing freedom to hundreds of millions of people around the world, and laid the groundwork for our victory in the Gulf War. America signaled approval of his leadership when 49 of the 50 states reelected him in 1984.
“Reagan’s popularity stems from his understanding and embodiment of the American Dream,” continued Norquist. “His ability to communicate his values restored a declining country’s moral compass and allowed us to become the world’s leader once again.”
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.
