Sixteen Republican Attorneys General filed an amicus brief in support of the National Rifle Association (NRA) as New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) pushes for the dissolution of the NRA as an organization.
On August 6, 2020, the Associated Press reported that James sued the NRA and said, “The NRA’s influence has been so powerful that the organization went unchecked for decades while top executives funneled millions into their own pockets. The NRA is fraught with fraud and abuse, which is why, today, we seek to dissolve the NRA, because no organization is above the law.”
