Charlie Kirk's "American Comeback Tour" is returning to Utah just weeks after his assassination at Utah State University, and the speakers slated for the event include Sen. Mike Lee, Rep. Andy Biggs, Utah Governor Spencer Cox, and former Rep. Jason Chaffetz.

The line-up, first reported at the Deseret News, was announced on Monday as TPUSA has vowed to carry out Kirk's tour after his assassination took place at Utah Valley University. The event will be held indoors, and the speakers will take part in a panel of what Utah will do going from here after the assassination.

“This is who we are. This is the DNA of Turning Point,” Turning Point Action COO Tyler Bowyer said. “You can’t have Turning Point and walk away from the things that made us successful.” Bowyer added that he is “completely committed to continuing the program."

Biggs told The Post Millennial of the upcoming USU event, "I am honored to join Turning Point’s campus tour in Utah to carry on the mission and legacy that Charlie Kirk built. Charlie dedicated his life to empowering young Americans with the truth, defending free speech, and challenging the Left’s grip on our culture and institutions. His assassination was a tragic reminder of the hostility toward those who dare to speak boldly for conservative values—but it will not silence the movement he started.

"At this pivotal moment, it is more important than ever that we show up, speak truth, and equip the next generation to fight for freedom. I look forward to standing alongside students in Utah as we continue this critical work."

Lee similarly said that he was honored to be part of the panel when he spoke to TPM. "“I’m honored to be a part of the continuing Turning Point tour in honor of the late, great Charlie Kirk. His dedication to open debate, our Constitution, and the values that made America the greatest nation on earth will inspire millions of his countrymen for years to come. The forces of division and violence can’t stop his message and they can’t stop us," he said. 

A memorial service was held on Sunday for the TPUSA founder with several speakers, including Charlie's wife, Erika Kirk. Her speech brought many people present and in around the country to tears, and in perhaps the most moving moment of the event, publicly forgave Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old charged with her husband's murder.

Senator Lee shared photos from Kirk's memorial on his X account with himself and his wife and wrote, "The Charlie Kirk memorial service was a gathering unlike any other—one I will always remember." He also shared photos of the moment when Erika said she forgave the shooter.



Cox also spoke about the moment of when Erika publicly forgave Robinson, and wrote on X that it was the "most incredible moment of the entire service."



Bowyer said of Erika's speech, “She’s so loved and so respected and after yesterday in particular, I think there’s millions of Americans who have her back." Erika as well as others at the event, spoke about their faith in God.

Those themes are likely to come up in the panel with the speakers, as all four are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
