The U.S. Senate has passed a resolution declaring Oct. 14, 2025, the birthday of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, as the National Day of Remembrance for Charlie Kirk.
The new resolution designates the day as an opportunity for "Americans to reflect on Kirk’s contributions to public debate and civic engagement."
The resolution also recognizes 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 with appropriate programs, activities, prayers, and ceremonies that promote civic engagement and the principles of faith, liberty, and democracy that Charlie Kirk championed.
Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., first announced the designation of the resolution Sept. 16 and said Kirk was a "magnetic leader, a loving father and husband, and a friend and inspiration to so many."
"Charlie loved our nation and its founding principles and believed deeply in his faith, in his family, and in the beauty of ideas and discussion," he added.
This is a developing story.
