Did Reagan sign an amnesty bill or not?
Actually yes he did, albeit with conditions for stricter border enforcement that were never honored by his political opposition to the present day. It continues to be an embarrassment on an administration that is widely held to be one of the most politically conservative in recent decades. However to the best of my knowledge Reagan didn't court the hispanic vote, insinuate people concerned with the border were racists, or send out federal prosecuters to go after "over zealous" border enforcement officers.

So your answer is yes, but...
What gets excused or justified is amazing.
Dubya's role as commander in chief has also been hit hard on this thread.
Another question. When confronted with a terrorist attack against our Marines, did Reagan fight or retreat?
