ST. GEORGE, Utah — Tyler Robinson’s dad was back running his thriving local business this week — days after he showed up in court to support his son as troves of damning evidence about Charlie Kirk’s murder were publicly revealed for the first time.

Matthew Robinson has been at his son’s side since the beginning — even turning him over to cops after he allegedly confessed to killing the Turning Point USA founder last September.

But when it comes to his legal defense, Tyler Robinson, 23, is on his own — and Utah taxpayers are footing the bill, which could exceed $10 million. More at Exclusive | Secrets behind Tyler Robinson's lucrative family business revealed

A WORD FROM SUPERVISOR BECKER AND SUPERINTENDENT TROMBLEE ON CRITICAL LEGISLATION AFFECTING THE HEN HUD DISTRICT

A critical piece of legislation affecting both the Hendrick Hudson School District and the Town of Cortlandt, as well as the village of Buchanan, is awaiting Governor Hochul's signature.

If signed into law, it would extend the Indian Point Cessation Mitigation Fund for five additional years, continuing critical financial support for the Hendrick Hudson School District, the Town of Cortlandt and the Village of Buchanan, with Hendrick Hudson receiving more than $20 million over the life of the extension.

In this joint message, Superintendent Michael Tromblee and Town Supervisor Dr. Richard Becker explain why this legislation matters and how residents can help by participating in the Hendrick Hudson PTA Advocacy Committee's community letter-writing campaign.
Please take a few minutes to watch the video, then visit HenHudAdvocacy.com to learn more and send a letter encouraging the Governor to sign the bill.

Thank you for continuing to support our students, our schools, and our community.

You can find the joint message video and the associated details on the Town of Cortlandt Government Facebook Page and the Hendrick Hudson School District Facebook Page.
