The bill proposes an appropriation of $25,000 from the arts and cultural heritage fund for the design and construction of a statue commemorating Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated in Utah on September 10, 2025. This funding is specifically allocated to the Board of Regents of the University of Minnesota for the statue to be placed on the university's Twin Cities campus.

The new legal language included in the bill establishes the appropriation and outlines its purpose, emphasizing the significance of honoring Charlie Kirk's life through this memorial. The bill aims to enhance the cultural heritage of the state by recognizing individuals who have made an impact, even posthumously.
