Brian Babin, U.S. Representative for Texas’s 36th congressional district, addressed several topics on his social media account on September 10, 2025, including firearms legislation and the death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
In a post at 16:35 UTC, Babin commented on gun suppressors and recent legislative changes: “Suppressors don’t make guns ‘silent’—they make them safe. Every hunter, sportsman, and servicemember knows this. Thanks to Trump’s Big, Beautiful Bill, the suppressor tax is history. A commonsense win for freedom!”
Later that day at 19:00 UTC, Babin posted a brief message of support for Charlie Kirk: “Please join me in praying for @charliekirk11.”
At 20:59 UTC the same day, Babin expressed his reaction to news regarding Charlie Kirk: “I am stunned and enraged by the execution murder of Charlie Kirk. I had the honor of meeting him years ago—he was one of the finest young men. I pray for his beautiful family, and may justice be swift for his killer.”
Babin has served as a congressman since winning election in 2014 against Michael Cole with over three-quarters of the vote. He has consistently secured re-election in subsequent general elections against various opponents—including Dayna Steele in both 2018 and 2024—maintaining significant margins each cycle.
