by The New York State Rifle and Pistol Association has made their recommendations for the 2024 NRA Board election.
Beyond appalling, these recommendations show they were not paying attention during the recent trial in New York.
The NRA was found liable for failing to properly administer charitable assets under the Estates, Powers, and Trusts Law (EPTL). Despite this they recommend David Coy who was Chair of the Finance Committee and Vice-Chair of the Audit Committee. They were also found liable for a related party transaction in payments to David Keene that was not properly approved even after the fact.
Moving on, Charlie Beers was the person who submitted the “Wayne is the greatest, past, present, and future” resolution at the 2022 NRA Meeting of the Members. Janet Nyce is now the de facto leader of the “Friends of Susan” contingent on the Board. Meanwhile, Joel Friedman and Don Saba didn’t think having a succession policy more substantial than the bylaw that has made Andrew Arulanandam the Interim EVP was needed.
Here is what they expect you to do with these recommendations.
My suggestion?
The only ones on that list that would be even “Maybes,” would be Don Saba and Jim Wallace.
Don is a sharp guy, but is one who has consistently swallowed the excuses offered by LaPierre and Cotton, believing it when they told him that it was a 4D chess game and everything was going to come out in NRA’s favor any minute.
Wallace has only done one full term on the Board and is broadly well-regarded, but I don’t know him personally.
Neither has ever stood up publicly and called for the crazy spending and defense of the indefensible to stop.
Please Vote for ONLY the Four for Reform: Phil Journey, Rocky Marshall, Dennis Fusaro, and Jeff Knox.
