           SUMMARY  :   Resolves that the Legislature takes great pride in  
          honoring Ronald Reagan for his many contributions to our country  
          and in celebrating his life; and recognizes February 6, 2014, as  
          Ronald Reagan Day.  Specifically,  this resolution  makes the  
          following legislative findings:

          1)February 6, 2014, will be the 103rd anniversary of Ronald  
            Reagan's birth and the tenth since his passing.

          2)Ronald Reagan served with honor and distinction for two terms  
            as the 40th President of the United States of America; and his  
            commitment to our Armed Forces contributed to the restoration  
            of pride in America and prepared America's Armed Forces to  
            meet 21st century challenges.

          3)President Reagan's commitment to the nation's children helped  
            lower crime and drug use in our neighborhoods; and his vision  
            of "peace through strength" led to the end of the Cold War.

          4)President Reagan, a man of humble background, worked  
            throughout his life serving freedom and advancing the public  
            good, having been employed as an entertainer, union leader, a  
            corporate spokesman, Governor of California, and President of  
            the United States.
