Partisan rancor was briefly paused on Wednesday as lawmakers reacted to the news of conservative activist Charlie Kirk's death.
Alex Miller is a writer for Fox News Digital covering the U.S. Senate.
"It’s devastating news," House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said. "The idea that political violence has taken one of the strongest voices on the conservative side is a great heartbreak. Charlie was a close friend of mine and a confidant, and he will be sorely missed, and we need every political leader to decry the violence and to do it loudly. The problem is in the human heart, and it's gotten out of hand."
"This is beyond terrible," Sen. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., said. "Charlie Kirk was a husband, father, and son. Violence is never the answer. Sydney and I are keeping the Kirk family in our prayers."
