| Who among us could imagine the sights and sounds of the U.S. Capitol last week? This is not the United States that we all thought we lived in and certainly cannot be moving forward. As we watched the violent and destructive protests at the U.S. Capitol last week, as well as in several American cities this past year, we were reminded of President Reagan’s words from 1982 when he said, “without law and order, our society would soon crumble, dashing the dreams of our forebears and mocking the heroes and heroines whose sacrifices have made this great land a beacon of hope and a symbol of freedom for the world.” We look forward to the days when our nation can resume a peaceful democracy, one that causes no harm to people or property. |

AN INFORMED AND ENGAGED ELECTORATE
|
| On September 10, 1988, in the waning days of his presidency, President Reagan gave a radio address to the nation on the importance of education. He said, “Since the founding of this Nation, education and democracy have gone hand in hand.” He speaks of the great tradition of Western Civilization and says, “That tradition does not say “some men” have these rights; it says “all men,” everywhere on this Earth. Whether of Asian, Hispanic, or African descent, no matter what color, every American is the inheritor of our great cultural tradition.” Given recent events, his thoughts on education resonate as powerfully as ever. |
