This bill, titled the "Charlie Kirk Congressional Gold Medal Act," seeks to honor Charles "Charlie" Kirk posthumously with a Congressional Gold Medal . The legislation recognizes his unwavering dedication to the American Spirit and his significant influence on a generation of young people, particularly through his advocacy for traditional American values such as faith, family, and freedom. His life was tragically cut short by a political assassin. The bill mandates the award of two gold medals: one to be presented to Kirk's family and another to be given to the Smithsonian Institution for public display and preservation. The Secretary of the Treasury is tasked with designing and striking these medals, which will feature suitable emblems and inscriptions. Furthermore, the Secretary is authorized to strike and sell duplicate bronze medals to the public, with proceeds supporting the United States Mint Public Enterprise Fund. These medals are designated as national medals and numismatic items.
