Grover Norquist’s Statement on President Reagan’s Death

 

WASHINGTON – Today, Grover G. Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform and chairman of the Ronald Reagan Legacy Project, released the following statement on the death of Ronald Reagan:

"Ronald Reagan found the nation in economic and international decline. He turned around the economy with his tax relief, broke the back of the Soviet Empire, changed the direction and trajectory of American history.

"Ronald Reagan changed the Republican Party, the nation and the world.

Ronald Reagan was the greatest leader of the free world in the 20th Century. Franklin Delano Roosevelt left Europe half enslaved. Churchill left Britain in economic decline. Ronald Reagan both defeated the Soviet Union and began a period of economic growth that has lasted a generation and continues to this very day."
