NAM President and CEO Jay Timmons issued statement following passing of former first lady Nancy Reagan. "Nancy Reagan was a powerful force for good, speaking out for those who needed healing and hope. We can and should all draw inspiration from her example. The greatest tribute to her memory, and to the Reagan legacy, would be to dedicate ourselves to bringing our country together, to ridding the darkness from our politics, and to striving always to be that 'shining city upon a hill.'"
