PHOENIX — Supporters of a state monument to Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated last year, think they’ve found a way to get it enacted into law by linking it to something Democrats support: a monument for slain journalist Don Bolles.
But the gambit may not work.
Not a single Democrat has so far agreed to support the proposal by Sen. Jake Hoffman, an ally of Kirk whose firm also had done some business for Kirk’s Turning Point USA, to link the two issues. Several foes have said Kirk does not deserve such an honor.
