by The NRA Board now stands at 71 members with the most recent resignations that happened late yesterday. Carol Frampton and Curtis Jenkins have resigned effective Wednesday.
The notice from John Frazer was received after 9pm last night.
Carol Frampton and Curtis Jenkins have now resigned from the Board. Please join us in thanking them for their service over many years. We now have 71 Board members.
Mrs. Frampton’s term would have expired in 2028, so her resignation creates an additional vacancy to be filled by the mail ballot. (Rep. Jenkins’s term would have expired in 2026, and therefore doesn’t affect the election.)
Members will now vote for the following seats:
- Twenty-five three-year terms that expire in 2029
- Five two-year terms that expire in 2028
- Four one-year terms that expire in 2027
This means that a total of 35 directors will be elected if you count the 76th Director who will be elected at the Annual Meeting in April. The pool of candidates is effectively at 37 which means virtually all candidates will be elected.
Many have said this is a good opportunity to reduce the size of the Board. That was a topic that was raised today at the Special Committee on Organization. Many differing views were raised by all those who attended that committee meeting. While sentiment seems to be swaying towards a reduction in size, there was no clear consensus on how many, how it would be implemented, if there would then be a “board of advisors”, and other similar concerns.
Amanda Suffecool who is now chair of this committee appointed Gen. Jack Hagan to a select committee of three to look at the issue and report back.
When I see these people resigning, I have to ask why.
I get that life affects people. But when a number of people in the same organization suddenly seem to quit simultaneously, a business owner would suspect some organizational problem.
Looks like the NRA has not yet recovered. As a life member I’m sorry to see that
