WHEREAS, Charlie Kirk left an indelible impression on the people whose lives he touched, and he will be remembered as a spirited individual who contributed immeasurably to the world around him. He was the founder and president of Turning Point USA, where he became known for his ability to connect with students on college campuses around the nation, and his dedication to advancing the company's mission of identifying, organizing, and empowering young people to promote the principles of free markets and limited government was truly impactful. Charlie Kirk's movement was built on peaceful civil discourse, as evidenced by his tireless efforts to foster respectful exchanges of differing ideas; and
WHEREAS, Charlie Kirk was a devoted follower of Jesus Christ who viewed the conservative movement as a spiritual battle worth fighting and promoted a vision of American renewal rooted in Christian values; and
WHEREAS, In his most important roles as a loving husband to his wife, Erika, and a devoted father to his two children, Charlie Kirk always used his talents to the benefit of those around him, and the warmth and understanding which he readily extended to others will stand as a testament to his personal character. Although the void which his death has created can never be filled, the legacy of care and commitment which he established will surely live on. The world is a richer place for his having been in it, and he will be truly missed;
RESOLVED, That we, the members of the Ohio House of Representatives of the 136th General Assembly, in adopting this Resolution, condemn the political assassination of Charlie Kirk as a horrific and unforgivable act of violence; and be it further
