Nomination News and Updates

First, an important message concerning Hurricane Harvey in Texas...
Karen and were in San Antonio for the Texas Association of Licensed Investigators - I am a member, and was to speak on Saturday, about the same time the NRA Nominating Committee was meeting. It was a great conference - despite the circumstances. It was not bad where we are. Many left Thursday, Friday, and Saturday to return to their homes, many cancelled - including speakers; several of us filled in to give attendees their needed continuing education hours. We had plans to stay until Tuesday and were prepared - others had to stay, due to airport closures, and were not. A group of 'refugees' entertained each other and did the best possible. During that time we sadly began learning of friends and colleagues - most are reporting safe, some losses, others are reporting devastation.
 
TALI has started a GoFundMe page - it is legit, and is managed by the Executive Director and Board.
www.GoFundMe.com/tali-disaster-relief-fund
 

From TALI:
 
"The Texas Association of Licensed Investigators (TALI) has started a relief fund for association members impacted by Hurricane Harvey. As the effects of Harvey have not yet been realized, TALI is anticipating numerous and substantial requests for assistance from its members, many still caught in the throes of this disaster. There is no minimum or maximum donation expected, we just ask to give as you feel led. Our thoughts and prayers are with association members and their families during this incredibly difficult time.
 
TALI is a non-profit, professional association of licensed investigators in Texas.  This GoFundMe account is managed by TALI Executive Director Carla Hunt and the TALI Board of Directors.  All donations will be distributed a the Board of Directors to TALI members in need.  TALI's address is 2951 Marina Bay Drive, Suite 130-564, League City, Texas 77573.
 
Help spread the word!"

Update from the NRA Nomination process
An update for those who have sent their support, endorsements and nominations in my quest to have a seat on the NRA Board - Thank You! 28 NRA Members sent in nomination forms! Of the names submitted to the Committee, 60 were qualified and 35 were chosen. I had a roughly 50/50 chance - and now we continue!

Unfortunately, on 08/29/2017 I was notified I did not make the cut by the Nominating Committee to be endorsed on the ballot. This is not a setback, its simply a different route to the same goal.

I expected the Committee would have a tough job, and there were exceptional candidates - I am not disappointed in their decisions or the outcome to me personally. This will not inhibit my strong desire to be on the NRA Board and more active in my outreach.

I have about 30 days (the month of September) to collect at least 653 valid NRA members signatures, with the help of NRA members. This is a more difficult, but worthy path for a variety of reasons. In the interest of your time and space, I have placed details of the process are at www.DeanBeersNRA.com/petition-process.html.


My goal is to get us a long needed seat on the NRA Board representing the investigative and security professions and develop a stronger legislative effort, defend our Constitution and protect our 2nd Amendment.
