The National Rifle Association said Wednesday it is willing to meet the presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump amid a potential disagreement between the two allies over gun rights for people who are placed on terror watch lists by the government.
“We are happy to meet with Donald Trump. The NRA’s position on this issue has not changed,” said Chris W. Cox, a top lobbyist for the National Rifle Association.
Trump said in November he would “absolutely” support blocking terror suspects on a terror watch list from buying a gun. On Wednesday, he tweeted, “I will be meeting with the NRA, who has endorsed me, about not allowing people on the terrorist watch list, or the no fly list, to buy guns.” He accepted the gun-rights group’s endorsement in May.
The NRA’s case against banning people on the watch list was outlined in the same statement on Wednesday.
