Tallahassee, FL – -(AmmoLand.com)- Every year the National Rifle Association of America each year conducts elections to select our Board of Directors. As we approach the 148th NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits in Indianapolis, Indiana where one of this years NRA Board of Director meetings will be held we have received news that Florida’s Marion P. Hammer has been re-elected to another three years as an NRA-BOD.
“I am proud and humbled to have been re-elected to the NRA Board of Directors for another 3-year term. I can’t express enough thanks to those of you who have honored me with your votes. Your confidence in me is deeply appreciated and I look forward to continuing to work for you.” ~ Marion P. Hammer
Marion P. Hammer has been the National Rifle Association’s lobbyist in Tallahassee for more than 30 years.
She was the NRA’s president from 1995 to 1998, is a member of the NRA’s Executive Council and has been executive director of the Unified Sportsman of Florida, an affiliate of the NRA, since 1978.
Hammer was inducted into the Florida Women’s Hall of Fame in 2005. That same year, she successfully lobbied for passage of the “stand your ground” law, calling the proposal the NRA’s top priority of the year. Since then, 24 other states have joined Florida in permitting the use of deadly force when a person thinks their life is threatened.
Editors Note: AmmoLand News has provided extensive coverage of NRA-BOD elections and we can report that the current Boad of Directors read your comments and are influenced by them. Thank you to our readers for keeping the dialog on going.
Not on my vote.
More Negotiating Rights Away, so sad
@OV, Got you, too?!
Much as the Fascist Taliban of the Left does,if they don’t like,agree or it fits their agenda with the speech,just ban it.
The NRA does not represent gun owners. It represents the seven-figure salaries of its top brass, and their political influence on the Hill.
Too bad, so sad … another loss for the good guys … the NRA board protects the NRA board, any benefits to the membership are coincidental … oh well, perhaps some good for the membership will accidentally dribble from the NRA … one can hope …
NRA; same old same old. The compromising “Old Guard” once again (still) maintains control and will continue to reap millions in personal profits and benefits while begging for more money and failing to defend the 2nd Amendment 100%.
Marion Hammer approves of the NFA restriction on machine guns and supports the Hughes Amendment. Also, She believes that bump stock = machine gun and fully supported making them go away. She’s not a friend of the Second Amendment and needs to step down.
So Adam Kraut didn’t make it again……call me shocked…..
It would be nice to see a complete list of who were elected. As the NRA usually doesnt post this info.
