What was one action Reagan took to achieve government deregulation?

One significant action Ronald Reagan took to achieve government deregulation was the appointment of deregulation advocates to key positions within his administration, including the Federal Trade Commission and the Environmental Protection Agency. He emphasized reducing government controls and regulations across various industries, notably in transportation and telecommunications. This led to the deregulation of the airline industry in 1978 and the telecommunications sector in the early 1980s, fostering competition and reducing prices for consumers.
