REAGAN The State Floor 2:37 P.M. EST THE PRESIDENT: What a wonderful welcome back to the White House for the Reagans. When the announcer here said, "Mr. President," why, I fell back to where I comfortably was for eight years -- (laughter) -- and seemed most appropriate. And it's a joy to welcome the President and Mrs. Reagan back here. And to Ms. Petrie, Mr. Shikler, so many members of the Reagan administration, and members of the White House Historical Association, and to all of you, it's a pleasure to have you with us today as we properly salute these two very special people -- the President and First Lady, who helped bring greatness to our country and, certainly, grace to America's House. And, Mr. President, you did make this nation strong, respected abroad, and because of your leadership, America stood tall then, stands tall now. And I really believe that history will record that you, more than any individual, helped stimulate the changes that we're all fascinated with and that's taking place all around the world today. Changes for the democracy that you've spoke about over and over and over again. And, Nancy, Barbara and I are just delighted to see you. How we enjoy this house whose beauty you enhanced so much. And you know, over the years there have been wonderful, many wonderful presidents and first ladies. But thanks to you, I don't believe this place has ever had a better team. And I know that America will not soon forget your courage amid adversity, your love of your husband and certainly your love of country. It's really good to have you both back. You can tell that California agrees with them -- just looking at them. (Laughter.) But these portraits were painted by the noted artist, Aaron Shikler. They are donated jointly to the White House for its permanent art collection by the Petrie Foundation and the White House Historical Association. Mr. President, these portraits will remind future generations about two of its greats. Look at the portrait of our 40th Chief Executive -- which will be hung on the State Floor with the other 20th century presidents. It reflects the qualities that make him so special -- kindness, gallantry, decency and humor. And then, look then at the portrait of Mrs. Reagan. It will hang in the Ground Floor Corridor with those of the most recent former first ladies. Here stands a person who refurbished the White House with grace and with elegance; who helped millions of Americans say "no" to drugs and started what has become a real crusade across our country -- thank God. "No" to drugs and "yes" to life. You know, for years our opponents were hoping to see MORE - 2 - President Reagan's back against the wall here in the White House. I don't think this is exactly what they had in mind when they talked about it (laughter) -- but it is most fitting. Mr. President, you are one of the most beloved presidents in the history of the Republic. And as friends, Barbara and I cherish both you and Nancy. What you began I really want to build on. And keep America, as you often said, "that shining city on a hill." And so it's now my official honor and pleasure to present the official portraits of President and Mrs. Ronald Reagan. (Applause.) PRESIDENT REAGAN: Thank you. And, Nancy, don't fail to take a look they're sure different than a lot of those cartoons we had to put up with. (Laughter.) Well, George and Barbara and distinguished guests, as Henry the VIII said to each one of his six wives, I won't keep you long. (Laughter.) My days of speech-making here are over, but I do want to share a few thoughts with you -- and on this very special day in Nancy's and my life. Incidentally, I want to say here, with the very kind things that George was saying, I think attention has to be called to the fact that whatever we accomplished, Vice President George Bush was a major part of everything we did. (Applause.) Maybe it's because my staff is a bit smaller now than it used to be, but I can't really find the words to express how I feel to be back here in this house. (Laughter.) I suspect, though, that the reason I can't find the words is because there are really no words to convey what it means to Nancy and me to be here. To walk in these hallowed halls again and to see all of you brings back so many memories of success and disappointment, of triumph and tragedy, of great joy and, yes, even some tears. But more than anything else, we're overwhelmed by the memory of the great sense of purpose that we all shared. A chance to -- well, all of us who served here together were a part of a great undertaking, a chance to serve our fellow countrymen and, hopefully, with a little luck and a lot of help from God, make our country stronger and make the world a better place. And I think that, looking back, we did just that. And I'll always be proud of what we all accomplished together. To live in this great house, this unique American symbol of freedom and democracy, is a special privilege and a sacred trust. To work here, too, is an opportunity which few have, but for those who do, we're forever linked in the great adventure known as history. We gather today not to honor any individuals though we are enormously grateful to the White House Historical Association and the Petrie Foundation for making possible this ceremony we gather today to look back with great fondness at a time in our lives that, no matter where we go, we'll always be special --an no matter what we do. So, too, will the memory of today be special and one that we'll carry with us in our hearts always. There aren't any words to describe what this is like. Nancy and I will be looking at each other on the plane going back and trying to think of something. But just know how deeply grateful we are, how honored we are, and how much we shall cherish the memory of this moment forever. God bless you all and thank you all very much. (Applause.) END 2:45 P.M. EST THE WHITE HOUSE Office of the Press Secretary For Immediate Release November 15, 1989 REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENT TO ENVIRONMENTAL YOUTH AWARD RECIPIENTS Room 450 Old Executive Office Building 11:30 A.M. EST THE PRESIDENT: I told Administrator Reilly he looked a little lonely standing up here with all these about-to-be-filled places. But I am very pleased to be here. And let me, at the outset of these remarks, while we're talking about the Environmental Youth Awards, say how proud I am to have Bill Reilly, an outstanding environmentalist, heading this big agency, the EPA, and being at my side as we try to move forward legislatively and every other way our concerns and your concerns about the environment. We're lucky to have a man of his stature doing what he's doing. Speaking of environmentalists, I don't want to embarrass Gil Grosvenor, but there he is -- head of the National Geographic Society. And I think of what they do, every single issue in one way or another, and in many other ways as well, to help in this crusade. It's a pleasure to be about to meet so many young people who are deeply involved in protecting our environment. I am told that you come from as far away as Alaska, from every corner of this beautiful country of ours. And I want to thank you for what you've done and welcome you warmly to the White House. Some people might ask: What can young people do to protect our environment? Well, we had five kids, and there were times when I thought that the kids could make a major improvement in the environment just by cleaning up their rooms. (Laughter.) But I realize now we have broader responsibilities. And anyone who has seen all of you at work knows just how much kids can do to protect and preserve this world that we live in. And I've heard about your projects. I've been briefed on those -- everything from recycling to conservation to some very sophisticated environmental research. Impressive, all of them. But what impresses me the most is how many times you took an idea that began in the classroom out into the community. And every one of your projects is making your communities a little cleaner, a little more pleasant, a little more aware of how much the environment matters. And that's a credit to each of you and to your schools and your teachers and your parents who gave you the necessary encouragement and support. But your work has an impact even beyond your own communities. Your projects teach other kids that no one's ever too young to care about the environment -- and they tell us something else, too: that if kids can be environmentally aware, maybe a few more adults will join in. The fact is that everyone can be an environmentalist, every one of us has got to be. What we're seeing today, not just here, but as Bill knows so well all around the world, is a new sense of urgency about the environment, about the state of our world. MORE - 2 - Greater awareness that pollution and the destruction of our environment hurt all of us -- that everyone of us has a common interest in the fate and the future of this planet, and that it's simply not acceptable to continue to do environmental damage today and leave the cleanup for you and your children to worry about later on. All of your projects are special, but I hope I don't offend anybody, I hope the rest of you won't mind if I mention two projects - the ones done by our youngest environmentalists. There's last year's 4th grade class here from St. Joseph, Missouri -- I see them smiling away here (laughter) that decided to adopt a polluted river, adopt the river in their community and clean it up. For one full year, you picked up the litter, tested the water, stocked the river with all kinds of wildlife, and you planted willow trees along the bank, I'm told, to protect against the erosion. I can tell you that, years from now, when you sit on the bank beneath those willows - maybe with some of your children, some of your grandchildren watching that river roll along, you're going to get a very special feeling, then, for what you've done today. There's another group here today Marquette, Michigan. Where are they? Right over here, scattered - all right, I see you guys who collected enough money to save an 80-acre stand of white pine trees from being cut down. And you knew how many trees there were and how much it would cost to buy the land so you did a litle math and came up with a slogan: "Save a Pine Tree for $155.28." (Laughter.) I've tried to make a habit myself, in various events, of planting trees to call attention to the need to care for the future of this planet. Planting a tree is not an act that we do just for ourselves but for future generations, including future 4th graders from Marquette, Michigan and elsewhere, who haven't even been born yet. Well, the people in your community who heard your slogan thought that saving those trees was worth every penny. What's true about those trees is true about the rest of our environment - our lakes and our rivers and our streams; our forests and our mountains; the very air we breathe. And nothing gives me more confidence in your generation than to see what you've already done to protect the gifts that nature has given us. Because "America the Beautiful" is more than just a song that we all sing. It's a treasured inheritance. And so together, we can keep it that way America the beautiful. So I'm glad to join Bill Reilly in congratulating all of you. And now, with no further ado, he and I have the great pleasure of passing out these awards. Thank you all very, very much. (Applause.) (The awards are presented.) (Applause.) END 11:40 A.M. EST THE WHITE HOUSE Office of the Press Secretary For Immediate Release November 15, 1989 REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENT TO THE AFL-CIO CONVENTION The Sheraton Washington Hotel Washington, D.C. 3:40 P.M. EST THE PRESIDENT: Thank you all very much. Lane Kirkland, thank you, sir. Tom Donahue and, of course, your special guest and our special guest -- America's special guest -- Lech Walesa. (Applause.) I've got some good news for you and some bad news for you. After Lech Walesa's stirring ovation before the United States Congress today, it is clear that he's ready to run for office in the United States. (Applause.) Bad news for some of you is he's going to run as a Republican. Thank you very much. (Laughter.) Now, I knew you'd like that -- come on. No, but in all seriousness, this is a great moment for the AFL-CIO. After eight long years of struggle, Mr. Walesa has accepted the George Meany Human Rights Award, first intended for Solidarnosc. Back in 1981, you remember, Lech wasn't allowed to be here to claim that prize. And the waiting began. I can really identify with Lech. (Laughter.) I understand what it's like to wait so long to get here. But I don't regret a minute of it because, after all it is great to be with you -- and to see the members who endorsed me sitting back there in the back row over there. (Laughter.) All four of them. (Laughter and applause.) Lately I have been feeling pretty confident. Barbara had a hunch that I'd be addressing this group today. And this morning she caught me in the shower singing the "Union Yes" theme song. (Laughter.) Let me begin sincerely by congratulating the leadership. And some of you were over at the White House the other day and I really wish every one of you could have been there for the ceremony in which, not only was Lech Walesa honored by the country, but Lane Kirkland was as well. (Applause.) He's now serving his 10th year, continuing the work begun by George Meany before him -- your unions truly are uniting under the banner of the AFL-CIO, as Lane promised. UAW, Mine Workers, Teamsters, Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, Longshoremen, Warehousemen's Union, Writer's Guild East -- all have affirmed their ties to this great organization. Lane Kirkland has done -- as he continues to do -- outstanding work on behalf of organized labor. (Applause.) And his work to consolidate and renew labor's strength gives the AFL-CIO the power to play its best role -- protecting the rights of working Americans at home and striving for those rights abroad through the support of democracy around the world. Labor has been an enduring force for freedom -- (applause) -- at times a lonely cry in the wilderness, at times the conductor of a thundering chorus -- rejecting all forms of totalitarianism, fascist and communist alike. With each passing year, through the labor movement, freedom is finding its voice. You understand that democracy rests not on cold marble MORE - 2 - and pieces of paper, but on institutions freely formed -- fully free. Look down the main street of any small town and you see them -- churches, libraries, schools, union halls. Free associations that are the beating heart of American liberty. Such liberty calls for a democracy created less by governments than by people -- through the give-and-take of competing interests, and individual and collective. A democracy that rejects management-by-decree or intervention from any centralized, all-knowing government. A democracy where people speak for themselves, rather than a government which speaks for them. You and I -- look, I know that we have differences. But those differences are a sign of democratic life -- a way of life that demands respect for differences -- and respects an honest opinion as much as it respects an honest day's work. And that is the kind of frankness and directness I get from the leaders of this union -- these unions -- and I appreciate it very, very much. (Applause.) And clearly, there are times when the need for progress demands that we put differences aside. Where Poland is concerned, now is such a time. Last July in Gdansk, standing with Lech Walesa at the Worker's Monument, I pledged to the enormous crowd out there before us that America stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the Polish people in solidarity. And in Warsaw, we announced our initiative to assist Solidarity and Polish workers in making that difficult transition from a discredited centrally-planned economic system to one of free markets and hope for a better future. Our Labor Secretary Elizabeth Dole, who met today with Prime Minister Thatcher and Britain's Labor Minister, also went to Gdansk in August to discuss the ways that our government, working together with organized labor in the United States, can help. In just two weeks, Secretary Dole and Lane Kirkland and some other leaders will join forces on a presidential mission to Poland -- our government, together with the AFL-CIO, in solidarity with Polish workers. (Applause.) Today I appeal to and call -- appeal to the unions and call on the American labor movement, the business community, and government to look for ways to support a partnership for progress in Poland for the sake of a nation and a people that need and deserve our help. Labor, business and government can and should be partners and activists for Poland's future. Last night, Lech Walesa came to dinner at the White House. Barbara and I wanted to try to reciprocate for the very special warm hospitality that he and his wife, Danuta, gave to us in his own home there at Gdansk. There was only four of us there last night. We treated him like family. Barbara said the grace before the meal and Lech joined in. It was a very special moment for me, personally -- very special moment for the White House. And we talked then about business. We talked about investment -- the need to attract new capital to Poland -- much in the spirit of Lech's words to this very convention. And yesterday he said, "such is the fate of a Polish trade unionist." He'd have to launch a publicity campaign entrepreneurship. Well, he's one smart trade unionist. Last night, labor's son and democracy's advocate was talking about banks and investment because he knows that means economic reform, and he knows that economic reform means jobs. And business and government can learn from -- and lend momentum - to labor's unflinching demand for dignity on behalf of every working man and woman -- not just in Poland, but around the world. And let us join hands. Let us work together as never before to fulfill that great promise of freedom. You know, there is so much to learn from labor's history of democratic struggle. During Hitler's rise to power -- Lane is old MORE - 3 - enough to remember this and, regrettably, so am I during Hitler's rise to power in the 1930's, American labor was among the very first to recognize that great evil. You extended your hand in solidarity to those fighting in the early underground movement. And then when the Nazi regime was finally destroyed, American labor went to work building democratic institutions and these independent trade unions. And later, when postwar Western Europe was threatened by the spread of international communism, it was American labor that stood firm. Tough, behind-the-scenes operators like Irving Brown -- (applause) -- your AFL's European representative -- saw to it that the Alliance was preserved and democracy prevailed in Western Europe. When Irving Brown died last winter, after four decades of fighting for workers' rights, he was widely recognized as an architect of Western democracy symbolizing American labor's commitment to freedom around the world. Today the tradition continues nowhere more powerfully than in Poland. The AFL-CIO was at the forefront, standing with Solidarity in its darkest hour, firm in the belief that the dawn would come. Because of that support, courageous leaders like Lech Walesa are now transforming Poland before the eyes of an admiring world. Stories of that transformation continue to unfold. Early in this century, in the Polish town of Lodz, David Dubinsky -- later to become the renowned head of the ILG -- was arrested for organizing. In 1908, that would-be organizer was sent from Lodz to Siberia by the Czar. Last week, a Solidarity candidate was elected mayor of Lodz. (Applause.) I Poland -- look at how things have moved. In Poland, Solidarity unlocked freedom's door. Today, holding Poland in their hearts as an example and inspiration, workers around the world are risking everything for democracy. The door cannot be locked again. Miners are striking peacefully in the Soviet Union for the first time since the early 1920's, one of them even calling their independent union and this is high praise for our special guest today, Lech Walesa -- one of them even calling that union "Solidarity." They and those like them offer hope for peaceful change, which the AFL-CIO is supporting actively through direct contact and assistance on workers' rights, union organization, collective bargaining. These are the tools your brothers and sisters abroad need most to hammer out justice on the anvil of freedom. With new legislation in the Supreme Soviet recognizing the right to strike in all but a handful of essential industries, the people of the Soviet Union now have an opportunity to voice their grievances. This will be a challenge to President Gorbachev as he works through Perestroika to raise productivity and living standards at the same time. Across Eastern Europe, we see vindication of the AFL-CIO's refusal to deal with puppet unions controlled by either employers or governments. Hungarian workers are turning to the Democratic League of Free Unions. Bulgarian workers are laying the foundations of a free trade union, to be called "Support." East German workers have created their first independent trade union, free of communist influence, to be called "Reform." The idea that motivated Lech Walesa and the members of Solidarnosc as they sat down to negotiate with the Polish government is a powerful one that men must be free in order to prosper. That idea spread to Hungary, where the physical dismantling of the Iron Curtain began. Uplifted by the hope that Europe will one day be MORE - 4 - whole and free, last week we watched in awe as Berliners danced atop the Berlin Wall. And we watched as a deep wound, a wound that has scarred the heart of Europe for 28 years, began to heal. And we saw it in the joyful faces of families reunited, in the smiles and laughter and tears of people greeting freedom like a long-lost friend, and in the wonder of children getting their first taste of freedom. Last summer I remember predicting that the Wall would come down. I expected it during my lifetime; I hoped for it during these next three years. But, you know, quite apart from predictions, change has a way of sweeping through like a fast-moving train. And no one and no government should stand in its way. Just yesterday, we welcomed the news of freedom -- more freedom -- freedom of travel in this case for the citizens of Czechoslovakia as a positive step forward. But in that country, where the tradition of democracy runs deep, and in others, freedom of travel is not enough. Only free and unfettered elections can satisfy the yearnings of a free people. It is against this backdrop of change that I will meet with President Gorbachev near Malta next month. We are not meeting -- and, Lech, take this message back with you -- we are not meeting to negotiate the future of Europe. The peoples of Eastern Europe are speaking their own minds about that future and they are calling for democracy, freedom of the press and of conscience, the right of the governed to choose their leaders. At Malta, I will work to advance that process of reform and democracy. And I also want to know what President Gorbachev thinks of the challenges that he faces at home and of the new course that he has set out for Soviet policy in Eastern Europe. I plan to discuss with him the importance of free trade unions in building a free country. (Applause.) The AFL-CIO has fought for that freedom around the world. And I'm going to carry that message to Mr. Gorbachev. I also want to talk with President Gorbachev about the opportunities to move beyond containment in U.S.-Soviet relations. To find areas of mutual advantage in our relationship. Everywhere you look in the world, members of the AFL-CIO are fighting to keep the door for freedom open for all. Working against such evils as apartheid; struggling for peaceful democratic change toward a system of one man, one vote; supporting free trade union movements in Paraguay, Guatemala and El Salvador, Nicaragua. And helping workers in Chile's plebiscite last year fighting for free elections now scheduled for next month. Manuel Bustos, president of the United Labor Confederation there, was until recently exiled in his own country. But thanks to you, thanks to the AFL-CIA (laughter) -- he is now free. Free enough to attend the great convention. (Applause.) That was a Freudian slip. (Laughter.) Your work is often accomplished -- did you explain it to him? (Laughter.) Your work is often accomplished at great sacrifice. Independent trade unions are often caught in a vise between death squads on the right and guerrillas on the left. In El Salvador, two of your own Mike Hammer and Mark Pearlman -- died at the hands of a right-wing death squad. And in Nicaragua, the Confederation of Trade Union Equity has been harassed and brutalized by the Sandinista regime's left-wing thugs. It takes uncommon courage for workers to fight the scourge of tyranny. Because dictators know that free unions mean pluralism. And pluralism denies complete control. So the tyrant's first targets for suppression, arrest, or murder are often independent unions and their members. In all, over 200 free trade unionists were murdered last MORE - 5 - year around the world. We grieve deeply for these sacrifices. Let there be no mistake: We condemn any efforts, by any government, to try to intimidate democratic unions or their members. In Thailand, South Korea, Malaysia, the Philipines, the AFL-CIO's support of worker education, libraries, and conferences on human rights all add to the inevitable momentum toward worker representation and collective bargaining. Workers in Southeast Asia by the millions -- especially children and young women -- are being used and abused and abandoned. Looking for a solution, we've enforced worker rights as part of the Generalized System of Preferences and in our trade policy review mechanism under the GATT, we've incorporated workers rights. In the long run, the surest solution to the struggle for workers rights is to support the growth of democratic institutions like free labor unions and to encourage economic development that will render child labor and nightmarish working conditions not merely illegal, but unthinkable. (Applause.) Just as a house is built from the ground up, labor's house rests on a bedrock principle of free association -- and rises by the strength of its members. Free trade union movements today stand on the threshold of change as a leading force for democracy. Labor's strengh has opened the door to freedom for millions. The door must remain open. You know, last week the Soviet Union celebrated the anniversary of the Bolshevik Revolution. In a protest march, a banner was carried that said, "Workers of the world, we apologize." It was the first time in memory that Soviet authorities allowed such demonstrations on that holiday. That banner is another sign that democracy is doing the unthinkable, by saying the unspeakable. The 1984 of George Orwell has come and gone. And I am hopeful that 1989 will be remembered as the year when American labor, business and, yes, government first began to work together in a real partnership for the freedom and dignity of workers everywhere. Not out of some utopian vision, but because we simply believe in the same basic values. The key to freedom rests in our hands. With that key, nothing is impossible. The door to democracy will remain unlocked, to each according to his ability to dream. Thank you all very, very much. God bless you. And may God bless working people everywhere. And, Lech Walesa, God bless you, sir. Thank you very, very much. (Applause.) END 4:00 P.M. EST
