Mississippi proclaims Ronald Reagan Day for 115th birthday
Mississippi proclaimed Ronald Reagan Day in honor of what the post described as the former president’s 115th birthday, a Facebook post said Saturday. The post quoted President Ronald Reagan: “The success story of America is neighbor helping neighbor.”
The post did not identify which official issued the proclamation. It said only, “I’ve proclaimed today Ronald Reagan Day in Mississippi.”
Reagan served as the 40th president of the United States from 1981 to 1989 and remains a prominent figure in modern American politics, known for his conservative policies and leadership during the late 20th century. Ceremonial proclamations such as state-designated days typically serve to recognize a public figure’s legacy and to rally public and political support around shared values.
Details about events or official ceremonies tied to the proclamation were not included in the post. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
