A bill

TO AMEND THE SOUTH CAROLINA CODE OF LAWS 
BY ADDING SECTION 53-3-320 SO AS TO DESIGNATE THE FOURTEENTH DAY OF OCTOBER 
EACH YEAR AS "CHARLIE KIRK DAY."

Whereas, Charlie Kirk, born on October 14, 1993, and tragically 
martyred by assassination on September 10, 2025, was the preeminent voice of a 
generation, inspiring millions of young Americans to engage in civic discourse, 
champion conservative principles, and reclaim the foundational values of faith, 
family, liberty, limited government, and individual responsibility; and

Whereas, as the founder and chief executive officer of Turning Point 
USA, Mr. Kirk led a transformative movement on college campuses and beyond, 
empowering students to defend free markets, secure borders, and traditional 
family structures against ideological overreach; and

Whereas, Mr. Kirk stood as a modern civil rights leader, fearlessly 
advocating for equal opportunity under the law, color-blind meritocracy, and 
the protection of constitutional rights for all citizens regardless of race, 
creed, or background in an era of divisive identity politics; and

Whereas, a vocal and unapologetic Christian, Charlie Kirk embodied 
the Christian heritage that undergirds American exceptionalism, publicly 
proclaiming his faith in Jesus Christ as a guiding force in the pursuit of 
justice, moral clarity, and the defense of the unborn; and

Whereas, through relentless persecution, cancellation attempts, 
smears, and ultimately his assassination, Mr. Kirk became a martyr for truth 
and faith, enduring personal and professional attacks with unwavering resolve 
to expose corruption, challenge elite narratives, and uphold objective reality 
in the face of censorship and cultural decay; and

Whereas, as a tireless free speech advocate, Mr. Kirk fought against 
suppression by technology companies, university indoctrination, and 
governmental overreach, ensuring that dissenting voices, especially those of 
the next generation, could flourish in the public square, thereby preserving 
the First Amendment as the bedrock of a free society. Now, therefore,

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

SECTION 1. Chapter 3, Title 53 of the 
S.C. Code is amended by adding:

 Section 
53-3-320. The fourteenth day of October of each year is designated as "Charlie 
Kirk Day" in South Carolina.

SECTION 
2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
