“legislative”

Whether opposing regulations or spearheading legislation, NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action makes lifting the ivory ban a top priority.

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc., has pledged to donate $2 to the National Rifle Association for each new Ruger firearm sold between the 2015 and 2016 NRA Annual Meetings. The company has its sights set on reaching a goal of $4 million in donations, all of which are to benefit the NRA Institute for Legislative Action (NRA-ILA).

The 10th Annual NRA-ILA Dinner and Auction, presented by Kimber, will take place this year in the Grand Ballroom of the Galt House Hotel in Louisville, Ky., on Friday, May 20, at 6 p.m. This highly anticipated event, which attracts celebrities, industry executives and a host of Second Amendment supporters from around the country, provides direct support for NRA’s legislative, legal and political efforts.

NRA roundup cites multiple states, Washington, D.C., and the HSUS.

The firearms maker has generously pledged to match up to $200,000 in donations made to NRA-ILA through Nov. 15.

NRA-ILA Executive Director Chris Cox will address the crowd at SCI’s Saturday Evening “Grand Finale” Gala.

Think the national news media reports the truth? Think again. For weeks now, gun-control advocates have claimed data they have collected indicate a majority of NRA members support an assault-weapon ban.

The NRA recently led the charge to defeat New York Senate Bill 4686, an anti-hunting bill backed by animal “rights” groups. The bill would have banned the importation, possession, sale or transportation of the “Big Five African Species” to include hunting trophies.

Arizona hunters may no longer be able to take mountain lions or bobcats, as SB 1182, a bill drafted by Arizona State Sen. Steve Farley (D-Tucson), seeks to end the hunting of the big cats. Backed by a fine of no less than $8,000, and potentially much more, the bill, if passed, would make mountain lions and bobcats a “protected” species.
