FIRST ON FOX: A Senate Republican wants to stop "propaganda" in America in the name of late conservative activist Charlie Kirk .
Sen. Mike Lee , R-Utah, plans to introduce the Charlie Kirk Act, which would halt the United States Agency for Global Media (USAGM) from disseminating media, such as radio shows, videos and websites, to influence Americans.
Lee said in a statement to Fox News Digital that from the end of World War II to former President Barack Obama’s second term, the USAGM, which is an apparatus of the State Department, was barred from distributing media within the U.S.
Lee argued that until 2013, it was illegal to "target American citizens with propaganda."
