I've taken all my questions and concerns direct to the AMA.

Concur and checked that already - none of AMA addresses are on their black list. Again, I get all their sponsored content trying to sell me stuff, all the updates from questions answered, only the government affairs stuff doesn't show up.

You know how to research things, (not how to complete a grant application though), you can figure it out. Of course you moved a goalpost and tried to apply a ludicrous comparison to my original comment. My comment was generic in nature, ie "there are usually exceptions to rules"...but you are trying to hard to apply it to something you want. You can't possibly think there are no exceptions to laws currently on the books right? In general. Right? Here, I'll toss you a bone, but no more than one. Can a police officer exceed a posted speed limit?
I've yet to find any private dues collecting organization who's members are permitted to do things on public highways, waterways, or airspace that the unwashed masses (non-CBO members) are not.

It's a conspiracy I'm sure.... just kidding. Weird happenings for sure. Yesterday I get the same e-mail at an e-mail account I don't use with them, it's not on record that I can see, yet somehow for the first time this e-mail pops up there. Cookie tracking, I have no idea.

The NRA boasted of 4.5 million members in 2014, in 2015 the AMA noted membership of 180,000.
The NRA budgets about $5 millions dollars a year solely for lobbying efforts. When the AMA set aside $250,000 for educational and lobbying efforts, there was outrage by some members.
When the AMA dues were increased slightly after 10 plus years of no dues increases, there was outrage by some members.
If we want to be on par with the NRA, it either means more members, or higher dues. With the average age of AMA members in the 55 plus range, and a membership that doesn't want their dues being raised, how can we get to the level of the NRA?
Who else other than the AMA is working on our behalf?

Looks like they are addressing the concerns regarding the change in membership renewal dates.

Yes, I did write to both my Senators expressing my opinion on the legislation.
