NRA Releases Letter Endorsing Henry

The National Rifle Association, representing hunters and sportsmen across the United States, has endorsed Governor Brad Henry for reelection as it did in the primary election period.

"I am grateful to the National Rifle Association for their continued support," Gov. Henry said. "Oklahomans treasure the right to bear arms and, as a lifelong hunter and sportsman, I understand how crucial the second amendment is to our culture, our way of life, and our freedom."

In the letter of endorsement the NRA's Chris Cox, executive director of the NRA's Institute for Legislative Action wrote to Gov. Henry in the primary, he said, "Your exemplary record of service as Governor of Oklahoma clearly illustrates your commitment to protecting the rights of law-abiding firearm owners and sportsmen. You have proven time and again to be a close ally and friend of Oklahoma's freedom-loving firearm owners."

The governor has also been endorsed in the general election by the Oklahoma Rifle Association and has an A rating from the NRA.
