Sacramento, CA – California’s Democratic Governor Jerry Brown has honored Republican legend Ronald Reagan with his own state holiday. Brown has declared, February 6, as “Ronald Reagan Day” in California.
Here is the Governor’s proclamation:
PROCLAMATION
BY THE GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
From his humble Midwestern origins, through a successful career in Hollywood, and on to the highest offices in his state and country, Ronald Reagan lived the California dream.
On this 103rd anniversary of his birth, we remember not only his most celebrated achievements-his successful diplomacy with Mikhail Gorbachev and the economic recovery that occurred under his presidency. We also remember the turbulent years of his governorship, during which he proved his ability to manage the affairs of the state, and earlier, the talent and the skill he brought to his work in one of our state’s most renowned and beloved industries.
NOW THEREFORE I, EDMUND G. BROWN JR., Governor of the State of California, do hereby proclaim February 6th, 2014 as “Ronald Reagan Day.”
IN WITNESS WHEREOF I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of California to be affixed this 5th day of February 2014.
