We were all shocked when Charlie Kirk was martyred while sharing his faith and political views with a gathering of Utah university students several weeks back.
Charlie was a patriot—but even more importantly, he was a dad, a husband, and a follower of Jesus Christ.
In the wake of this tragedy, it’s now more important than ever to reaffirm our commitment to promoting free speech, especially political and religious speech. We must ensure Idaho remains a state where Christian principles can be proclaimed without the threat of violence.
Our state should recognize Charlie’s legacy—and stand up to those who would kill us for sharing our Christian faith and our political viewpoints.
Let’s call on state lawmakers to designate Idaho State Highway 16 – which runs from Emmett to Nampa – as the “Charlie Kirk Memorial Highway.”

Most importantly, it would honor the legacy of Charlie Kirk, his wife Erika, and their two children, each of whom sacrificed greatly for the sake of the gospel and the defense of American freedom.
But it would also serve as a reminder that free speech and the Christian faith are vital for a functioning constitutional republic—and that we ought never tolerate political violence as a response to robust civil discourse.
