NATIONAL EMPLOY THE HANDICAPPED WEEK, 1985
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION
Today disabled men and women are entering the American
labor force in unprecedented numbers, finding personal
fulfillment and contributing to our society and our economy.
The reasons for this welcome development are not hard to find:
enhanced enforcement of laws that prohibit discrimination
against the handicapped; actions by employers to provide more
accessible work places and transportation; improved education
and training; more innovative job accommodations; and better
attitudes toward the disabled. The most important reason of
all is the outstanding work record people with disabilities
are achieving at their jobs.
But none of this should make us complacent. Much remains
to be done if we are to bring brighter days to all the
disabled people of our country.
If handicapped people are to reach their full potential
and if society is to enjoy the full benefit of their innate
talents and abilities, new efforts are needed to properly
prepare disabled people to assume positions in the work force,
to motivate those not currently employed, and to bring new
technologies into wider use by those who need them. Moreover,
all of us must constantly strive for full acceptance of
disabled people, so that we begin to see people rather than
disabilities. We must first learn, and then seek to inculcate
in others, especially the young, a deep respect for the human
person, whatever that person's handicaps. By doing so, we
reaffirm the timeless American principle of equality of
opportunity and help build a future in which the unique
attributes of every citizen are recognized and allowed to
develop for the good of all.
2
The Congress, by Joint Resolution approved August 11,
1945, as amended (36 U.S.C. 155), has called for the desig-
nation of the first full week in October of each year as
"National Employ the Handicapped Week." This special week
is a time for all Americans to join together to renew their
dedication to meeting the goal of full opportunities for
disabled citizens.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RONALD REAGAN, President of the
United States of America, do hereby designate the week
beginning October 6, 1985, as National Employ the Handicapped
Week. I urge all governors, mayors, other public officials,
leaders in business and labor, and private citizens to help
meet the challenge of the future by ensuring that disabled
people have the opportunity to participate fully in the
economic life of the Nation.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
day of
, in the year of our
Lord nineteen hundred and eighty-five, and of the Independence
of the United States of America the two hundred and tenth.

NATIONAL SEWING MONTH, 1985
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION
The sewing industry annually honors approximately fifty
million people who sew at home and approximately forty million
people who sew at least part of their wardrobes. Their
initiative, creativity, and self-reliance are characteristic
of the people of our Nation.
The home sewing industry generates an estimated
$3,500,000,000 annually for the economy of the United States.
Home sewing also has enhanced career opportunities for many
Americans in fields such as fashion, retail merchandising,
design, patternmaking, and textiles. Learning the art of
sewing in the home or in elementary school home economics
classes started many on careers in these fields.
In recognition of the importance of home sewing to our
Nation, the Congress, by Senate Joint Resolution 173, has
designated the month of September 1985 as "National Sewing
Month," authorizing and requesting the President to issue a
proclamation in observance of this month.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RONALD REAGAN, President of the
United States of America, do hereby proclaim September 1985
as National Sewing Month. I call upon the people of the
United States to observe this month with appropriate
ceremonies and activities.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
day of September, in the year of our
Lord nineteen hundred and eighty-five, and of the Independence
of the United States of America the two hundred and tenth.
