Congressman Jim Baird (IN-04) has issued a statement following the death of Charlie Kirk, who was shot while speaking at an event at Utah Valley University.
“I am devastated to hear that Charlie Kirk has passed away. He was a passionate leader and an inspiration for so many young conservatives in America. Charlie dedicated his life to serving God and advocating for the values that make our country the greatest nation on earth. Please join me in praying for the Kirk family, especially his wife and their two young children, during this unimaginably difficult time. May Charlie rest in the eternal peace of Christ,” Baird said.
