Republican State Senator Neil Anderson has introduced Senate Bill 2694 to designate September 10 as “Charlie Kirk Day” in Illinois. The bill seeks to amend the State Commemorative Dates Act, aiming to honor the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA.
Kirk was shot and killed on September 10, 2025, while preparing to speak at Utah Valley University. Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old from Utah, was arrested and charged with his murder.
State Senator Sue Rezin commented on the proposed legislation: "By establishing a day of recognition, Illinoisans will have a chance each year to reflect on Kirk’s values, his contributions to public discourse, and the continuing importance of protecting our constitutional rights."
Senate Bill 2694 has been filed with the Illinois General Assembly and is awaiting committee assignment.
Rezin, a Republican who began serving in the Illinois State Senate in 2010 representing the state's 38th Senate District after succeeding Gary G. Dahl, supports this initiative.
