 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.
