                  Last year we had 332 mass shootings, and 13,449 people died from guns. But the NRA keeping Congress quiet.

                How? By pouring in money…in 2014, the NRA spent $3,360,000 on federal lobbying. That's a lot.

              So I've built a new site, NRA Funded, where you can see if your Congresspeople are being funded by the gun lobby: producthunt.com/tech/nra-funded/

        The NRA, in just 2014, spent a total of$27MM on federal elections, electing people to represent them, not us.

      The NRA is far from the only organization lobbying Congress. But when 13K people die every year from guns, it’s time to take a deeper look.
