Majority Of Democrats Refuse To Support Resolution Rejecting Political Violence
Friday, Sep 19, 2025 - 03:50 PM

In a vote that exposed the dark side of the majority of Democrats, the House on Friday passed a resolution honoring slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk and rejecting the political violence of recent years. The passage, however, was not without substantial opposition.

The vote was 310-58, with 95 Democrats joining all 215 Republicans in voting yes on the nonbinding resolution. The 58 no votes all came from Democrats, but another 38 Democrats voted present (would not take an open side) and another 22 Democrats did not vote. In other words, 118 Democrats in Congress refused to support the resolution.
