Executive compensation records for Giffords, Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, and Mike Bloomberg-affiliated Everytown for Gun Safety show that the gun control lobby’s pockets are deep.
For example, IRS Form 990s, posted at ProPublica, show that Brady president Kristin “Kris” Brown’s base 2024 compensation was $486,378.
Brady CEO Susan Lavington’s base compensation was $275,092.
Moms Demand Action’s Executive Director Tamara Ferrell-Zabala’s base 2024 compensation was $355,117 and Everytown’s Eric Tirschwell’s base compensation was $354,421.
Giffords’ Executive Director Emma Brown’s base “reportable compensation from related organizations” was $300,491.
Ironically, the gun control lobby and various other leftists often raise money via claims that the gun industry has deep pockets.
