Joe Manchin: NRA Is Lying and Has ‘Lost Its Way’
“The Washington NRA could spend one hundred million dollars on ads against me; it still won't make what they say true,"
“Unfortunately, the NRA leadership in Washington has lost its way and is more concerned about political power than gun rights and gun safety,” he said. “I am the same proud gun owner and NRA member that I have always been and I believe that criminal and mental background checks are a commonsense approach to protect our neighbors and children without infringing on our 2nd Amendment rights. I think most NRA members agree with me.”
