The board of Turning Point USA has named Charlie Kirk’s wife, Erika, as his successor as CEO after he was assassinated on Sept. 10.

Join the community of Monthly Ministry Partners and help IFA provide prayer resources to other intercessors.

 

Erika Kirk was unanimously elected as chair of the board and CEO of the conservative youth outreach organization.

“In prior discussions, Charlie expressed to multiple executives that this is what he wanted in the event of his death,” TPUSA said on the social media platform X.

“It was the honor of our lives to serve as board members at Charlie’s side,” the statement said. “Charlie prepared all of us for a moment like this one. He worked tirelessly to ensure Turning Point USA was built to survive even the greatest tests. And now, it’s our great pride to announce Erika Kirk as the new CEO and Chair of the Board for Turning Point USA.”

Tyler Robinson, 22, has been charged with aggravated murder in the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk, the father of two young children, at a Turning Point event on Utah Valley University’s campus on Sept. 10.

Erika Kirk will speak at her husband’s memorial service on Sunday in Glendale, Arizona, alongside President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Father God,
Esther became Queen Esther and was the only person who could keep Israel from annihilation. She was made to step up for “such a time as this”. Just as Queen Esther was made for saving Israel during her time, I ask that you watch over Erika as she steps into being Queen Erika, the one who was made for such a time as this and can save America from the enemy! I declare, i n the name of Jesus, that Erika receives the same mantle as Queen Esther, a prayer warrior willing to face the enemy to save a nation, saying, “If I perish, I perish.” She knowingly put her life on the line, and defeated the enemy. Father, I declare that this mantle be placed lovingly on Erika, now Queen Erika. In Jesus’s name. Amen.
