US bank halts NRA credit card, car rental firm ends discount

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — The nation's largest privately-owned bank holding company and a major car rental chain said Thursday they will stop promotions aimed at National Rifle Association members. The Nebraska-based First National Bank of Omaha will not renew its contract to issue the group's NRA Visa Card, spokesman Kevin Langin said in a statement. "Customer feedback has caused us to review our relationship with the NRA," Langin said. Langin declined to say when the contract would expire and would not elaborate on what sort of feedback the company had received. Separately, car rental company Enterprise said its three brands would end a discount program for NRA members. Both companies released their statements dozens of times on Twitter in response to calls for them to sever ties with the NRA.
