Congress on Monday night holds a prayer vigil for the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated last week by a shooter at Utah Valley University.

The congressional vigil comes the day after Republicans held a vigil for Kirk at the Kennedy Center, which included members of Congress and remarks from White House and Trump administration officials.

Kirk is considered one of the most influential people on the right in recent years, particularly known for founding Turning Point USA, which has chapters at universities across the country.

The prayer vigil was scheduled to begin at 6:15 p.m. Eastern. You can watch it here.
