Charlie Kirk’s widow on Friday said she will work to preserve the legacy of the conservative activist and carry on the mission of Turning Point USA.
“To everyone listening tonight across America, the movement my husband built will not die. It won't. I refuse to let that happen. It will not die,” Erika Kirk said in a Friday night livestream, making her first public comments since her husband's death.
“All of us will refuse to let that happen,” she continued. " No one will ever forget my husband's name, and I will make sure of it."
Charlie Kirk was shot and killed on Wednesday in Utah. On Friday, state and federal law enforcement identified the suspected shooter as 22-year-old Tyler Robinson.
Turning Point USA, a high school and college conservative nonprofit, was founded by Charlie Kirk
