Al Hammond Urges Hamlin To Fire Brewer<\/a><\/p>\n

NRA Director Al Hammond has sent a letter to the members of the Board of Directors encouraging them to support NRA EVP Doug Hamlin and to encourage Hamlin to fire Bill Brewer and his law firm. From everything I\u2019ve read and everything I\u2019ve heard, Hamlin as EVP has the authority to hire and fire any and all vendors including Brewer. While some are strongly holding to the theory that only the Special Litigation Committee has that power, I think ultimately that they are in error.<\/p>\n

From Al Hammond\u2019s letter to the BOD:<\/p>\n

Subject:\u00a0Letter to Support Doug Hamlin to Terminate Bill Brewer<\/span><\/p>\n

Fellow NRA BOD members,\u00a0 We have come to a critical time in the history of the NRA.\u00a0 Myself having worked for the NRA for close to 30 years and then joining the BOD I have never seen this association in such dire straits financially and continuing down a path dooming our beloved NRA. We have to take a stand and turn this organization around.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

The first step is to terminate Bill Brewer and his legal team and allow our elected CEO\/EVP to do his job without constraint.\u00a0 I have sent a letter to Doug Hamlin encouraging him to do so and I would ask you to consider sending one in support of Doug as well. My letter is below. <\/span><\/p>\n

Now is the time to stand and be counted and help rewrite history as being part of the patriots who saved not only the NRA but our Country. We owe this to our NRA members, our Country and our children to continue to protect these rights every day.\u00a0 Now is your chance to be heard. Please send Doug Hamlin a support letter for all the good work he has accomplished and continues to do for our NRA everyday.<\/span><\/p>\n

Best Regards<\/span><\/p>\n

Hammond then goes on to release the letter he sent to Doug Hamlin in encouragement. You may remember that some of the cabal had referred to Hamlin as the \u201cinterim EVP\u201d which he is not. I presume that was because they preferred a more compliant EVP and one not associated with the reformers.<\/p>\n

From that letter to Hamlin:<\/p>\n

Doug, <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

As a member of the National Rifle Association Board of Directors my fiduciary responsibility is to represent our members and promote and protect this great association.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

With the continuation and constant legal maneuvering by the Brewer law firm to keep the NYAG law suite and other lawsuits without a resolution it is time to terminate and replace our current legal counsel and replace them with our own internal legal counsel and\/or another outside legal counsel firm who can get the job done.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We have paid the Brewer firm in excess of 190 million dollars and we can no longer afford this high priced counsel with dismal positive results.\u00a0 We are cash strapped and the current legal counsel and our President, Bob Barr, along with the entire Special Litigations Committee seem to have turned a blind eye and insist we continue to use Bill Brewer for not only the NYAG case but other pending cases and any new legal cases we enter into.\u00a0 Enough is enough.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

As the duly elected CEO\/EVP you have the full authority to decide on any legal counsel moving forward and termination of any currently being utilized.\u00a0 I fully support and ask you to dismiss the Brewer Firm from any and all lawsuits currently and any moving forward. Our members have had enough of their hard earned money and the support they have given being squandered on poor legal representation.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you for all that you have done and continue to do to bring back the NRA to what it should be and let\u2019s build a bigger and stronger NRA\u00a0 working together.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Best Regards<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
