About Chris Cox

Chris Cox Chris W. Cox is the Executive Director of The National Rifle Association’s Institute for Legislative Action and serves as the organization’s chief lobbyist.

Chris enjoys hunting and fishing in west Tennessee where he is a graduate of Rhodes College in Memphis, TN.

He oversees eight divisions within the NRA-ILA, including Federal Affairs; State & Local Government Affairs; Public Affairs; Grassroots; Finance; Research; Conservation; Wildlife & Natural Resources; and Office of Legislative Counsel.

Needles to say Chris is an outspoken defender of the RKBA.
