❌ HB599
Designate Charlie Kirk Memorial Day
Current Status: In House Committee (General Government)
Summary
This bill designates October 14 as 'Charlie Kirk Memorial Day' in recognition of Charles James Kirk, a political activist born on that day in 1993.
Rationale
The bill does not align with the core principles of the Libertarian Party or the Libertarian Party of Ohio, as it involves government recognition of an individual, which may be seen as an unnecessary government action that does not promote individual liberty or free markets.
Risks and Concerns
- Potential for government overreach in designating memorial days.
- Encourages state involvement in personal or political recognition.
