Congressman Tom McClintock today introduced a resolution honoring President Ronald Reagan on the 98th anniversary of his birth.  The resolution recognizes the significance of President Reagan’s accomplishments, such as winning the Cold War and communicating to the American people the self-evident truths of freedom, which made a lasting impact on the United States and the world.

“Like millions of Americans I was inspired by the example that President Reagan set. The principles upon which he stood inspired people around the world to fight to bring freedom and democracy to their own nations. I am proud to author this resolution to honor the anniversary of his birth as part of the effort to keep his memory, spirit, and legacy alive,” Rep. McClintock said. “Ronald Reagan believed that the America’s strength comes from the American people and not the government. That is an important lesson that we should remember as we face the enormous challenges ahead.”
