2

From Breitbart: A formal House resolution was submitted Friday by Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) to place a statue of late Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk inside the U.S. Capitol, marking the first formal Capitol-level memorial action since Kirk’s assassination and coming just weeks after what would have been his 32nd birthday.

The measure introduced in the House would direct the House Fine Arts Board to accept and permanently display a statue of Charlie Kirk no later than January 2, 2027. It would recognize the placement of a statue of Kirk in the House wing of the Capitol to honor his legacy of free expression, civic leadership, and faith-centered American principles.

The final list of original cosponsors includes Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), Rep. Eric Burlison (R-MO), Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ), Rep. Barry Moore (R-AL), Rep. Tom Tiffany (R-WI), Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA), Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ), Rep. Keith Self (R-TX), Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN), Rep. Michael Cloud (R-TX), Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL), Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-GA), Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA), Rep. Marlin Stutzman (R-IN), Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), Rep. Sheri Biggs (R-SC), Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL), and Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO).


Kirk had endorsed Biggs in his race for governor of Arizona, and hosted a large rally for him on May 31 in Phoenix.

Following the rally, Kirk posted a video of his speech on behalf of Biggs.

“To secure President Trump’s legacy we need to win in 2028. To do that, we need to lock down Arizona, and doing that starts with taking down Katie Hobbs and winning back the governor’s mansion. And nobody is better-equipped to do that than Rep. Andy Biggs. My speech at the TP Action Biggs for Governor rally,” he wrote.
