Was Reagan "in favor" of any of things things? Assuming so, because he signed a bill including many issues, is not necessarily correct.

Values change over time.

You can ask the same about conservatives and Reagan. Can you imagine a Republican today that was in favor of:
- granting amnesty to illegal aliens
- raising dividend/capital gains taxes
- being a proponent of gun control

Reagan also steered away from conservative "social issues." A reason I liked him. He wouldn't survive today.

I miss Mindbender. These days, this is just too easy.

"We have consistently supported a legalization program which is both generous to the alien and fair to the countless thousands of people throughout the world who seek legally to come to America. The legalization provisions in this act will go far to improve the lives of a class of individuals who now must hide in the shadows, without access to many of the benefits of a free and open society. Very soon many of these men and women will be able to step into the sunlight and, ultimately, if they choose, they may become Americans."

During an appearance on the Christian Life Today program, Huckabee told televangelist James Robinson that he was considering a 2016 presidential bid because the country needed to become a “God-centered nation that understands that our laws do not come from man, they come from God.”

“It’s the natural law of God,” the former Arkansas governor said, adding that he was not calling for a theocracy.

“We have a theocracy right now,” Robinson interrupted. “It’s a secular theocracy.”

“That’s it,” Huckabee agreed. “It’s a humanistic, atheistic, even antagonistic toward Christian faith. And that’s what we need to understand. Our basic, fundamental rights are being robbed from us, taken from us piece by piece.”

At the conclusion of the program, Robinson said that people should pray that whoever was president would “keep God in the center of their focal point.”

“Absolutely,” Huckabee remarked. “And whether it’s me or someone else, and I do ask people to pray. For me, this is not just a political or financial decision, it is a spiritual decision.”

Paving the way for the inimitable Pat Robertson for President.

My point, although not well stated, was that presidents often sign bills which include policy which they disagree. Capital gains tax increases, for example, with Reagan. This is from Wikipedia on Reaganomics.

"The four pillars of Reagan's economic policy were to reduce the growth of government spending, reduce the federal income tax and capital gains tax, reduce government regulation, and tighten the money supply in order to reduce inflation."
