Gov. Sanders, TPUSA CEO Erika Kirk Set for Announcement in Little Rock

Turning Point USA aims to expand high school chapters in Arkansas through Club America, with support from Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders and CEO Erika Kirk.

  • On Wednesday, Erika Kirk, CEO of Turning Point USA, will join Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders at the Arkansas Governor's Mansion to announce a 'statewide Club America partnership'.
  • Turning Point USA launched Club America in July 2022 as a high-school program, and Erika Kirk stepped into leadership after Charlie Kirk's death, pledging to expand outreach.
  • Kirk was shot during a campus event in 2025, later dying from injuries, sparking controversy and disciplinary actions against Felicia Branch and Joy Gray over comments about his death.
  • The governor's office did not respond Monday to whether chapters will be placed in all Arkansas public high schools or what role the state will play, and the announcement is expected to draw significant attention from political leaders and supporters across the state.
  • In recent months, at least one other state announced a schools-related partnership with Turning Point USA, which has more than 3,500 chapters nationwide.
