NRA Membership Requirement Affirmed
Bylaw Change to Eliminate NRA Membership Requirement Fails in Vote at Annual Meeting
The proposed change to Article IV, Section 1 of MVSA's bylaws, which requires membership in the National Rifle Association to be eligible for MVSA membership, was recently presented and voted on at the Annual General Membership Meeting on April 15, 2021.
Forwarded by a motion of the Board of Directors, the proposal would have eliminated the requirement to be an ongoing member of the NRA. Such a change in the bylaws requires a vote at a special or annual membership meeting, with a passing vote of at least a 2/3 majority of members present, to amend the bylaws. The vote resulted in a 15-13 membership vote in favor of the proposed amendment, but the measure failed to gain the required majority of two-thirds of votes and thereby failed.
The upshot of this vote is that, as has been the case since the club's founding 25 years ago, NRA membership is still required for membership in MVSA. Discussion on how to verify membership is ongoing, but at this time it appears members will need to present proof of NRA membership at the new member orientation, either through bringing an NRA membership card or the subscription label of an NRA publication indicating membership.
