U.S. Senate And House Approve ‘National Day Of Remembrance’ For Charlie Kirk Following His Assassination

In the days leading up to conservative influencer Charlie Kirk’s memorial service, both the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives approved a resolution designating October 14 — his birthday — as a National Day of Remembrance.

It was gathered that the Senate on Thursday unanimously backed the measure, led by Sen. Rick Scott of Florida, who described Kirk as “a good man, a devout husband, father, and friend” while honoring his contributions to civic education.

House Speaker Mike Johnson confirmed that the House also approved the resolution on Friday, though 96 Democrats withheld support. Twenty-two, including former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, staged a walkout ahead of the vote.

The move comes less than a month after Kirk was shot and killed on September 10 while speaking at Utah Valley University in Orem.

His accused killer, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, was arrested after a two-day manhunt and has been charged with aggravated murder and several other offenses. Prosecutors say they intend to seek the death penalty.

According to court documents, Robinson told his parents he committed the crime because he believed Kirk “spreads too much hate.”

Robinson made his first court appearance this week, with his next hearing set for September 29, 2025.
