NRA-ILA FAX ALERT
Vol. 7, No. 43 10/27/00
HESTON—LaPIERRE—BAKER TOUR CONTINUES IN FIVE STATES
Next week, NRA President Charlton Heston, NRA Executive Vice President
Wayne LaPierre, and NRA-ILA Executive Director James Jay Baker will
continue their "Get Out The Vote" (GOTV) tour (see FAX Alert, Vol. 7, No.
43), this time stopping in Arkansas, Tennessee, West Virginia, and
Wisconsin, and revisiting Pennsylvania. These states are among those
referred to by political pundits as "Battleground States," and could hold
the key to securing victory for the pro-Second Amendment community on
November 7. The purpose of these rallies is to encourage NRA members to
help elect pro-gun, pro-freedom lawmakers on Nov. 7, and we are counting
on our members to show up in droves. A large turnout will show candidates,
and the "mainstream media," that NRA members will be voting Freedom First
on Nov. 7. Next week's tour will start on Monday, Oct. 30, in Green Bay,
Wisconsin, at the Regency Suites - KI Convention Center, from noon-1:30
p.m., then it will stop in the Country Inn Hotel & Conference Center in
Waukesha for a 6:00-7:30 p.m. rally. On Tuesday, Oct. 31, the tour will
first hit Erie, Pa., for a noon-1:30 p.m. rally at the Rainbow Gardens,
then fly to Beckley, W.Va., for a 6:00-7:30 p.m. event at Conference
Center at the Raleigh County Armory Civic Center. Wednesday, Nov. 1, will
bring your NRA leadership to Tennessee, for rallies in Knoxville and
Nashville. The Knoxville event will be held at the Parker Sports Arena,
and will run from noon-1:30 p.m. Nashville's event will be held at the
Opryland Hotel, in the Governor's Ballroom, and is scheduled to run from
6:00-7:30 p.m. The final stop on this leg of NRA's GOTV Tour will be on
Thursday, Nov. 2, and the rally will be held in Bill Clinton's own
backyard of Hot Springs, Ark., at the Hot Springs Civic and Convention
Center. This event will run from 6:00-7:30 p.m. NRA members in these areas
are encouraged to attend the event near them and show their support for
NRA's leaders and our efforts to elect pro-Second Amendment candidates on
Nov. 7! NRA members who need more details on the events can find several
News Releases on these rallies at www.NRAILA.org. If you are an NRA member
who is interested in attending one of these events, but you do not have

NRA-PVF GOES ONLINE
The elections are only 11 days away, and NRA has pulled out all the stops
to achieve victory for the pro-Second Amendment community on Nov. 7. For
the first time in our history, NRA has posted its candidate ratings and
endorsement information online, as it is critical that the entire pro-gun
community knows which politicians are on its side when it comes to our
Right to Keep and Bear Arms. Anyone interested in knowing where candidates
stand regarding the Second Amendment is encouraged to visit the website of
NRA's political action committee, the NRA-Political Victory Fund, which is
located at www.NRAPVF.org.
