House, Senate pass ‘National Day of Remembrance for Charlie Kirk’! Days before a memorial service in Phoenix for Charlie Kirk, the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives passed a “National Day of Remembrance” for the conservative leader after he was killed on Sept. 10.

The Senate on Thursday unanimously approved a resolution marking Oct. 14, 2025 — Kirk’s birthday — a “National Day of Remembrance for Charlie Kirk.”

While on the Senate floor, Sen. Rick Scott, the Florida Republican leading the passage of the resolution, said he is “proud to have the support of more than 20 of my colleagues to honor Charlie by dedicating his birthday” as this day of remembrance.

In the approved resolution, the Senate “recognizes Charlie Kirk for his contributions to civic education and public service” and “encourages educational institutions, civic organizations and citizens across the United States to observe this day.”

My Comments: May God bless and comfort his widow, Erika Kirk and their two young children! PS: This very capable woman has now been elected by the Turning Point USA board of directors as Pres. and CEO! Good move!
