Rep. Burlison Mourns the Tragic Assassination of Charlie Kirk

Charlie Kirk, 31, was tragically shot and killed at a Utah Valley University event.

Rep. Burlison issued the following statement:

"Charlie Kirk was instrumental in leading the conservative youth movement across our country. He led the charge across college campuses, defending individual liberties and teaching a generation of young people how to think for themselves. Charlie was the man in the arena, fighting back against the deranged indoctrination in education that has corrupted so many of our institutions. We are praying for Charlie, his wife, and his two children. This tragedy is a painful reminder of the evil that exists in our world. This kind of violence must never be tolerated."

Rep. Burlison also discussed the tragic murder of Charlie Kirk on Wake Up Springfield and with the Daily Signal.
