❌ SB271
Designate Charlie Kirk Memorial Day
Current Status: In Senate Committee (Government Oversight and Reform)
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 core Libertarian principles of limited government and individual liberty, as it establishes a state-recognized day which may be seen as government endorsement of a specific individual or ideology.
Risks and Concerns
- Potential for government endorsement of specific political figures
- May set a precedent for further state recognitions that conflict with individual liberties
