Alaska Governor Proclaims October 14, 2026 as Charlie Kirk Day in Recognition of the First Amendment
Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy issued a proclamation on October 14 designating October 14, 2026, as Charlie Kirk Day in Recognition of the First Amendment in Alaska.
The proclamation states that the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution secures for every citizen the right to speak freely, to assemble peaceably and to engage in open and honest debate, which are the foundations of liberty and a republican form of government. It notes that Charlie Kirk, born October 14, 1993, founded Turning Point USA and traveled across the nation to speak in forums, classrooms and on campuses, and that he gave his life in defense of these freedoms.
In the proclamation, Dunleavy encouraged all Alaskans to honor Kirk's example by practicing civil dialogue, protecting the right of free expression and preserving the liberty that defines the nation. The proclamation was signed in Juneau and dated October 14, 2026, which is also Kirk's birthday.
