Coalition for Jewish Values is saddened by the brutal killing of Charlie Kirk. His death was not senseless: it was a deliberate, calculated murder in order to silence one of America’s most powerful voices for public policy steeped in morality and truth.

Charlie Kirk stood for free speech and open discourse, for many of the moral policy positions of the CJV, and for tireless advocacy for Jewish civil rights including in the Jewish homeland. His murder is a tragedy not only for his family and fans, but for all who value the right to free speech, open discourse, and to live in a society free of hate.
