Reading Room Document

Administration of the Ronald Reagan Centennial Commission

The Ronald Reagan Centennial Commission should create an executive committee, composed of its five presidentially appointed members, to discharge the purely executive functions of the Commission. The six congressional members, in turn, could participate in nearly all of the Commission's activities, including in ceremonial functions, and could advise the executive committee on the formulation of programs that would be technically approved and executed by non-congressional members. The OLC does not provide release dates for its opinions, so the release date listed is the date on which the opinion was authored. The original opinion is available at www.justice.gov/olc/file/2010-05-07-admin-reagan-commn/download.
