Bishop, Jr. (GA-02) issued the following statement regarding today\u2019s vote on a resolution concerning Charlie Kirk:\n\n\u201cLast week, Charlie Kirk was gunned down in an apparent act of political violence. As I publicly stated on the day of this tragedy, political violence against any individual or group is unacceptable and incompatible with our country\u2019s laws, values, and ideals. My sincere prayers and condolences go out to his family.\n\n\u201cIf this resolution were to simply condemn Charlie Kirk\u2019s murder, it would have had my vote. Unfortunately, it was an attempt to use this tragedy as an opportunity to lionize his beliefs. While he was entitled to have and express his beliefs freely, some of them are offensive to me and to the many people targeted by his invective and vitriol. They do not reflect the highest and noblest values of America, nor my Judeo-Christian faith, and I cannot condone them.\n\n\u201cThough I unequivocally condemn political violence and Charlie Kirk\u2019s heinous assassination, I could not support this resolution.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T19:10:29Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://bishop.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/congressman-bishop-s-statement-on-house-resolution-719"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.5855648089200258, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
