Overview
- Reps. August Pfluger and Abe Hamadeh said they will introduce legislation this week directing the U.S. Treasury to mint 400,000 commemorative silver dollars featuring Charlie Kirk.
- The coins would be legal tender with Kirk’s image on one side and the words “well done, good and faithful servant” on the other, plus his full name and the year 2026.
- The final design would be selected by the Treasury Secretary in consultation with President Donald Trump, according to the sponsors.
- The measure had not appeared on Congress’ public legislation tracker as of the latest reporting.
- The proposal is part of a broader GOP push to honor Kirk with medals, a remembrance day, and a possible statue, as sponsors call his killing political violence despite no verified ties between the alleged shooter and liberal groups.
