Charlie Kirk

Rep. Nancy Mace (R‑S.C.) said she is introducing a House bill to rename the Washington, D.C. area formerly designated “Black Lives Matter Plaza” after slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk, three months after his assassination at a Utah campus event. Mace acknowledged the bill may not get a floor vote but vowed to push it as part of efforts in Congress to memorialize Kirk; the D.C. site was initially named in 2020 and the designation was reversed by the city earlier this year.
