Jasmine Crockett on Vote Against Charlie Kirk Resolution: “He Deserves No Honors”
Rep. Jasmine Crockett expressed disappointment that only two white House representatives voted against a resolution honoring Charlie Kirk, citing his harmful rhetoric targeting people of color. The resolution, which passed with 58 Democrats voting against it, celebrated Kirk’s “life and legacy,” despite his history of making racist remarks and expressing views that were deemed offensive by many. Crockett highlighted Kirk’s personal attacks against her and his promotion of the “great replacement” theory, further solidifying her opposition to the resolution. Other lawmakers, including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the Congressional Black Caucus, echoed similar concerns, condemning Kirk’s divisive ideology and the resolution’s attempt to legitimize it.
