ADA COUNTY, Idaho — A proposal to rename Highway 16 the “Charlie Kirk Memorial Highway” is already taking shape, even before any legislation has been filed at the Idaho Statehouse.

Idahoans shared mixed reactions when asked about the idea. “No, I disagree. I don’t think it should be named by someone not from Idaho,” said Ashley, an Idaho native now living in Boise.
