Sign the petition to corporate sponsors: Divest from the NRA
Your ongoing partnership with the National Rifle Association is supporting an extremist organization that has stopped all reasonable gun safety laws. Please divest from the NRA.
Why is this important?
The National Rifle Association (NRA) is an extremist organization that opposes virtually every common-sense gun safety regulation, even ones supported by most gun owners.
But the NRA continues to be powerful, because it boasts over 5 million members -- members who enjoy various corporate discounts when they pay their annual $40 membership fee.
For example, car rental companies like Hertz, Avis & Budget each offer 25% discounts to NRA members. Federal Express gives NRA members a 26% discount on shipping charges.
We cannot influence the NRA, but we can put pressure on corporate sponsors to divest from the NRA and make its membership less valuable.
Already, we are seeing changes. For years, the First National Bank of Omaha offered the "official credit card of the NRA." On February 22, due to consumer pressure, they announced it was being discontinued.
