RESOLUTION

Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that a statue of 
Charles ``Charlie'' James Kirk should be accepted for display in the 
House of Representatives wing of the United States Capitol to honor his 
enduring legacy of free expression, civic leadership, and unwavering 
commitment to the American principles of faith, family, and freedom.

Whereas Charles ``Charlie'' Kirk was an inspirational figure in conservative 
politics;
Whereas Charlie founded Turning Point USA in 2012, with the mission of educating 
students on the principles of fiscal responsibility, free markets, and 
limited government;
Whereas, under Charlie's leadership, Turning Point USA encouraged open debate 
and emphasized the importance of civic engagement in a way that drew 
millions to its mission;
Whereas Charlie understood that the United States Constitution is the most 
important political document in history, enshrining and protecting the 
God-given rights of every human from the heavy hand of government;
Whereas Charlie served as an example of the best of humanity, treating everyone 
he encountered with respect, offering them the truth, and maintaining a 
willingness to engage in dialogue with anyone he encountered; and
Whereas Charlie was assassinated for his beliefs and work on September 10, 2025, 
in direct contradiction with the right and ideal of freedom of speech on 
which our nation was founded: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That not later than January 2, 2027, the House of 
Representatives Fine Arts Board shall accept a statue of Charles James 
Kirk and, at the direction of the Speaker, permanently display the 
statue in a prominent place in the House of Representatives wing of the 
United States Capitol.
