Fox News
Education Secretary Miguel Cardona butchered a popular phrase coined by Ronald Regan pertaining to the role of government in the everyday lives of Americans.
The context of his comments centered on the federal government working with state governors on funding priorities related to education, but were drastically different from what Reagan actually said in his often cited quote, which he first uttered during a news conference on Aug.12, 1986.

"The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government, and I'm here to help," Reagan said.
