Introduced Session

This resolution urges the 119th Congress to have a permanent statue in honor of Charles "Charlie" Kirk to be placed in the "Seat of the Government of the United States." Charlie Kirk was a conservative political activist, talk radio host, public speaker, and author. At the age of 18, Charlie co-founded Turning Point USA, which is a nonprofit organization that advocates for conservative politics at schools, colleges, and universities. During Turning Point USA events, Charlie engaged in get-out-the-vote campaigns and held debates on college campuses across the country. On September 10, 2025, Charlie Kirk was targeted for his publicly stated political views and assassinated during a speaking engagement at a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah. In response, the 119th Congress passed H.Res.719 and S.Res.391, strongly condemning Charlie's assassination and offering fitting tributes of his life and legacy. The United States Senate also passed S.Res.403, which expresses support for designating October 14 as the "National Day of Remembrance for Charlie Kirk" in recognition of Charlie's contributions to civic education and public service. On what would have been Charlie Kirk's 32nd birthday, the President issued a stirring proclamation declaring October 14, 2025 a National Day of Remembrance for Charlie Kirk and posthumously awarded Charlie the Presidential Medal of Freedom, rightfully providing Charlie with our nation's highest civilian honor. A statue of Charlie Kirk would remind generations of Americans of his life and legacy.
