The House approved a resolution Friday to honor Charlie Kirk, a week after the conservative activist was assassinated at an event in Utah.
Notably, Democratic leaders and nearly 100 rank-and-file Democrats joined Republican to adopt the measure on a 310-58 vote.
The ceremonial measure, introduced by Speaker Mike Johnson, condemns the murder and praises Kirk as a “courageous American patriot … who boldly lived out his faith with conviction, courage, and compassion.” It also “calls upon all Americans — regardless of race, party affiliation, or creed — to reject political violence, recommit to respectful debate, uphold American values, and respect one another as fellow Americans.”
