Description
This week we wanted to talk about a topic that we can actively try to change the outcome of.
In light of the terrible mass shootings that have been occurring and the lack of immediate action from certain groups, we wanted to discuss something related that has had a massive bearing on the gun laws in the U.S.
The NRA.
We will dive into its tax-exempt status as a "non-profit" organization. We'll tell you why it was started, what it has become, which politicians they donate to, and how we can take active steps to change their tax exemption status.
The time for action is now.
