Not even three weeks after the brutal assassination of Charlie Kirk, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) publicly claimed that Kirk “has no legacy to honor.” Her remarks come on top of a long record of statements targeting Jewish Americans, conservatives, and anyone she disagrees with.
Kirk’s death was a national tragedy. To hear a sitting member of Congress dismiss his memory with such contempt is deeply disturbing.
Omar’s words are not mere disagreements. They mock the memory of the dead and foster division at a moment when the country is grieving. Leaders should heal, not demean.
If Rep. Omar refuses to apologize and retract her statement, Congress should act:
- Issue a formal censure
- Remove her from committee assignments
- Launch a full ethics investigation into her conduct
This is not about political sides. It is about basic standards: respect, decency, and accountability.
👉 Sign this petition if you believe elected officials should never mock tragedy, and that Rep. Ilhan Omar must be held to a higher standard when she uses her platform to incite hatred.
