RE: NRA Committee Assignments for 2019-2020

Dear Madam President,

I recently received notification from you, that you removed me from all my NRA Board
of Directors Committee Assignments, with no explanation. Even after repeated phone
calls to you, which resulted in voicemails asking for a return call, I still have not received
a return phone call, letter or email of explanation.

Shockingly, you even removed me from the NRA-ILA Grassroots Development

Committee, after many years of serving on that committee with perfect attendance. After
years of volunteer grassroots activism, I was recognized in 2010 with the NRA-ILA Jay
M. Littlefield Volunteer of the Year Award and recognized on the floor of the Ohio
House of Representatives for my work as an Election Volunteer Coordinator for
NRA-ILA in Ohio.

In 2012, I was inducted into the NRA-ILA Election Volunteer Coordinator Hall of Fame,
resulting from my time and dedication to the Grassroots Division as an Election
Volunteer Coordinator.

Over the years, as a Volunteer for the NRA, paying my own way for travel expenses, and
receiving no compensation from the NRA, I have continued to dedicate myself to
grassroots activism.

In 2013, I traveled to Colorado to participate in the successful recall election effort of two
anti-gun Senators. Again, in 2013, I traveled to Virginia under the direction of NRA-ILA
Grassroots Division to campaign on behalf of pro-gun Gubernatorial, ​Senate
of Virginia and Virginia House of Delegates​ Candidates.
In 2014, I traveled to Connecticut, Iowa and Ohio, under the direction of NRA-ILA
Grassroots Division and campaigned on behalf of Federal State and Local pro-gun
candidates during Primary and General Elections.

In 2015, I traveled to Virginia under the direction of NRA-ILA Grassroots Division to

campaign on behalf of ​Senate of Virginia and Virginia House of Delegates pro-gun
Candidates.

In 2016, I traveled to Florida to assist in the General Election; that same election cycle I
returned to Ohio where I volunteered for the top NRA-ILA Campaign Field Office in the
Country, in support of Donald Trump, and other Federal, State and Local candidates.

In 2018, I campaigned in Ohio under the direction of NRA-ILA Grassroots Division on

behalf of Federal, State, and Local candidates. I also hosted a pro-gun meet and greet
Ohio Candidate Forum for all Federal, State, and Local pro-gun candidates up for
election in Ohio. In Ohio, under the direction of the NRA-ILA, I assisted in successfully
electing a 100% pro-gun Executive Slate.

Earlier this year, in May, I co-hosted a shooting event for my pro-gun Congressman
Warren Davidson. Most recently, I traveled to Sandusky County, Ohio, and spoke to a
“100 NRA Club” considering ending its affiliation with the NRA, because of recent
concerns. I successfully persuaded them to remain an NRA Club.

Yet, after all I have done in support of the Grassroots Development Committee, and all
the other NRA Committees of which I faithfully served, I was blacklisted. I can only
surmise, that I was blacklisted for taking actions to obey my oath as an NRA Board
Member, and follow the Code of Ethics for Directors of Nonprofit Corporations; which
required me to exercise my fiduciary duty of care; which caused me to question
management decisions within the NRA, and to further investigate matters of which I was
made aware.

I respectfully request that you reconsider your decision to remove me from all
Committees, particularly the Grassroots Development Committee, and reappoint me to
the Grassroots Development Committee, and further communicate to me your rational for
removing me from all my Committee assignments.

Very truly yours,

/s/ ​Sean Maloney
