The NRA says it has more dues-paying members than any other grassroots organization, but shifting power in Congress and changing public opinions on gun laws may present challenges.

NRA or ALTRA (Alt-Right Assc)

Stay strong

Why don’t they blame gangs and domestic terrorist.

With the Senate Finance Committee looking at the flow of Russian money through the NRA, the House Judiciary Committee looking at firearm regulation, and the American people SICK of having their children massacred at school, it's no wonder they're having a tough year!

Still no reports of Democrats giving up gun based security.

the NRA isn’t pro-gun enough. gun owners are flocking to other orgs like GOA and 2nd Amendment Foundation.

Since when is the nra 'grassroots'? They're as crooked as hell and we know the Russians are funneling money through them

Sorry, but being that there are too many psychological benefits that the tool called a gun brings to millions.. regardless there will be no way anything will take that from the people.. it is very sad killings even happened, but just getting up or falling asleep can be your last.

The long interview with gun kid was interesting...It is a gun family...the 2nd amendment is misinterpretted by him and his father...He hopes to join the military and at the same time supports his right to overthrow the govt with arms...Patrick...these people scare me...

katstails We need to reach critical mass in candidates not taking PAC money. It’s the only protection from the NRA and the many small groups that benefit from our current campaign finance laws. NeverForgetParkland NRAIsATerroristOrganization

Why does my money support NPR ?

We've seen this kind of organization before. In Italy in 1922.

Good.

The vast majority of NRA dues-paying members oppose it's main goal of stopping any restriction on gun ownership. On terrorist no fly list? NP. Domestic abuser? Come on down. 'Grassroots'? Its CEO makes millions It's the gun lobby. It aides and abets mass slaughter.

“Grassroots” ? Please NPR, try harder.

Simple, take money from foreign powers that want to destroy America. Problem solved for the NRA.

These kids got more done in one year than adults have in forever. So very proud of them, but ashamed that many adults don’t even care. Not including the gun violence laws that were passed, just look at how many people they registered to vote.

I thought they were broke last month and now they're bragging?!

Nothing will get past the senate 2A

Why no one is taking any guns away and we don’t need another army

We need to get the money out of politics. But it was under the Obama administration that this very idea became even more difficult to accomplish.

What many fail to realize is that the NRA is but 1 of many pro-gun lobbyists groups. It is also one of the more moderate of them. Remove the NRA, and it is likely that one of the other more conservative groups will take its place.

Changing public opinions on gun laws? Lol

Stupid Humans... still trying to blame an inanimate object. Mental Illness is the problem, not guns. Until you deal with that, you will continue to have these horrific crimes. By guns, by knives, by vehicles, by explosives, by airplanes..... what would you like to ban next?

Many thanks to the NRA for its great work! Decent Americans, please join. Member, please renew and include an extra contribution.

I hope the challenges are vigorous enough to result in effective gun control!!!!

My WallStreetJournal op-ed arguing that kids, especially boys, need more access to guns, not less.

Not really no.

Fun fact: A SHIT LOAD OF GUN OWNERS HATE THE NRA.

Yet the NRA does not open its books. We can only assume what the real number is.

RussianAsset

Grassroots lol

It doesn’t help that they launder money for Russia to buy politicians.

Congress routinely has overstepped its power in policing firearms and its absurd that they continue to do so

Plenty of dues paying members! Some pay more than others.

Hard to be 'grassroots' when you're paid off by Russian oligarchs.

NPR is wishful thinking.

Why is the NRA recieving so much opposition A YEAR AFTER?

I’m a lifer in the NRA. None of my guns have shot anyone.

They think! The children will win. davidhogg111 👍👍👍

Unlikely.

So a good chunk of Congress hate Freedom?

No, I would say the gun grabbers still have the bigger problem, trying to get guns away from real Americans.

The left loves focusing on the NRA. A good chunk of gun owners aren't NRA members. They just want to protect their families.

Or not.
