Hollywood stars Morgan Freeman, Ashley Judd, and others associated with the No Rifle Association initiative (#NoRA) have signed a letter demanding Bank of America revoke a loan made to Remington Arms.
Alyssa Milano tweeted the list of signatories, which included Alec Baldwin, Michael Ian Black, Mia Farrow, Chelsea Handler, Debra Messing, Julianne Moore, Michael Moore, and Rosie O’Donnell, and a page full of others. Signatories also included Parkland gun control activist David Hogg.
The letter is directed to Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan. It opens by saying:
As Americans, we celebrated when Bank of America made a promise to stop financing the manufacture of military-style weapons for civilian use. We applauded your leadership.
Finally! A major corporation was doing the right thing and making the country safer. The decision was going to save lives.
Apparently, this was all too good to be true. We are angered to learn that you have flipped on your promise to the American people and will continue to loan more than $43 million to Remington Arms during its bankruptcy, allowing them to continue to manufacture weapons like the AR-15 which killed so many in Newtown, CT.
The letter goes on to suggest that Moynihan deems profits as more important than “the next life taken by a Remington gun.”
