The NRA today announced it will reorganize the Association as a Texas nonprofit to abandon the corrupt political and regulatory environment in New York. This plan will enable long-term, sustainable growth – and ensure the NRA’s continued success as the nation’s leading advocate for constitutional freedom.
To facilitate the reorganization, the NRA and one of its subsidiaries filed voluntary chapter 11 petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division. Chapter 11 proceedings are often utilized by businesses, nonprofits and organizations of all kinds to streamline legal and financial affairs.
Under the plan, the NRA is “dumping New York.”
Subject to court approval, the NRA’s strategic plan involves reincorporating the Association to the State of Texas – home to more than 400,000 NRA members and site of the 2021 NRA Annual Meeting being held in Houston.
The NRA is pursuing reincorporating in a state that values the contributions of the NRA, celebrates our law-abiding members, and joins us as a partner in upholding constitutional freedom. This is a transformational moment in the history of the NRA.
We firmly believe this strategic plan represents a pathway to opportunity, growth and progress.
The NRA will continue with the forward advancement of the enterprise – confronting anti-Second Amendment activities, promoting firearm safety and training, and advancing public programs across the United States. Our national platform is expanding.
The NRA is not insolvent. This move comes at a time when the NRA is in its strongest financial position in years.
We value you, or donors, supporters and members, and want to assure you that the NRA is revitalized, well-positioned, and steadfast in our fight to protect the Second Amendment.
