Following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, a House resolution honoring him was met with opposition from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and 57 other Democrats. Ocasio-Cortez criticized Kirk's views on the Civil Rights Act, his comments regarding Paul Pelosi's attacker, and his statements about Jewish influence. While the resolution condemned political violence and honored Kirk's legacy, Ocasio-Cortez argued it was partisan and divisive, highlighting Kirk's controversial statements. The resolution passed despite the Democratic opposition.
