NY Attorney General Seeks To Dissolve NRA

New York (AP) -- New York’s attorney general is suing the National Rifle Association, seeking to put the powerful gun advocacy organization out of business over allegations that high-ranking executives diverted millions of dollars for personal benefit.

The lawsuit filed Thursday by Attorney General Letitia James followed an 18-month investigation into the NRA, which is a nonprofit group originally chartered in New York.

She accused its top leaders of using NRA funds for lavish personal trips, contracts for associates and other questionable expenditures.

A message was sent to the NRA’s legal team seeking comment.
