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.
HRES 842 is a non-binding resolution expressing the House's support for placing a statue of Charles "Charlie" James Kirk in the Capitol's House wing. It honors Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA and a conservative political figure assassinated in 2025, for his advocacy of free expression, civic engagement, and conservative principles. The resolution directs the House Fine Arts Board to accept the statue and display it permanently by January 2, 2027, though actual placement remains subject to the Board's approval. This is a symbolic gesture to commemorate Kirk's legacy, not a new law with policy impacts.
