John — the NRA had a rough year. Financial scandals, infighting, and extravagant spending by CEO Wayne LaPierre on Italian suits and private jet travel are just some of the issues it's been dealing with this year.
The NRA has even lost some of its most prominent figures and spokespeople while it juggles lawsuits, investigations, and discord. The hateful, racist NRATV was cancelled. Chris Cox — the face of the NRA's lobbying on Capitol Hill — resigned. And Oliver North — the NRA's President — stepped aside during its chaotic annual meeting...and the NRA is suing him.
The NRA is a mess right now, and this is a key moment for us to fight back with everything we have. Donate to the Everytown Victory Fund today and your gift will be TRIPLED towards fighting the NRA in 2020.

The Attorneys General of New York and Washington, D.C. are investigating the NRA's potential violation of laws governing not-for-profit organizations based on potential misuse of its donors contributions. And the NRA and its longtime business partner, Ackerman McQueen, are engaged in a scorched earth litigation that is showing just how bad things have gotten inside the NRA's leadership.
The NRA is rife with scandals, but it's still been able to raise huge amounts of money this year ahead of the 2020 elections. Don't forget – it spent $55 million to help elect Donald Trump and gun lobby allies to Congress in 2016. The NRA has used its power to stop gun safety reform for decades, even after some of the worst mass shootings in modern American history and as gun violence kills 100 people on average every single day and wounds so many more. But we're fighting to triumph over the NRA and elect leaders who will finally pass stronger gun laws.
If we're going to end the NRA's ability to block gun safety reform in Washington D.C., we need your help to beat them at the polls next year. Donate today to the Everytown Victory Fund, so we have the resources we need to defeat the NRA and the NRA's number one ally — Donald Trump. If you donate today, your gift will be TRIPLED; that means you'll have triple the impact on our ability to win next year.
Thank you for your support,
