Condemning the September 10, 2025, political assassination of Charlie Kirk and honoring his life and legacy.
This bill is a House Resolution that condemns the September 10, 2025 assassination of Charlie Kirk and honors his life and legacy. It portrays Kirk as a devoted family man and faith-based activist who founded Turning Point USA and contributed to conservative youth engagement. The resolution expresses condolences to his family, commends first responders and medical personnel, and reaffirms the House’s commitment to protecting Americans’ rights to peaceful assembly and to express political views without fear of violence. As a ceremonial, non-binding measure, it does not create new policy or legal requirements but serves as a formal statement of condemnation and tribute. The resolution relies on a series of “Whereas” statements detailing Kirk’s life, work, and impact, followed by four explicit actions: (1) condemning the assassination, (2) applauding first responders, (3) expressing condolences to the Kirk family, and (4) reaffirming protections for peaceful political expression.
