NRA Board Member Needs Your Help to be Confirmed as Alaska’s Next Attorney General!

Thursday, April 09, 2009

Please Contact Your State Legislators Today! As we have reported, Wayne Anthony Ross, a member of the NRA Board of Directors, was nominated by Governor Sarah Palin (R) to be the next Attorney General of the State of Alaska.  This nomination requires confirmation by the full Legislature, which will consider his nomination on Thursday, April 16. There are few issues of greater importance to citizens of Alaska than the Right to Keep and Bear Arms and the natural right of self-defense.  Wayne Anthony Ross is a proven, staunch defender of our Constitutional rights.  If confirmed, Alaskans can rest assured that their firearm freedoms and hunting heritage will have a strong advocate in the State Attorney General’s office with Wayne Anthony Ross. Please contact your state legislators TODAY and respectfully urge them to confirm Wayne Anthony Ross as Attorney General.  Contact information can be found here.
