CURRENTLY, MEMBERS OF THE PRO-MANDATORY PROFESSIONAL MEMBERSHIP ARE LOBBYING FOR REGIONAL DIRECTORS POSITIONS AND ARE TAKING ON OTHER POLITICALLY ACTIVE ROLLS.  WHILE THIS IS THE ENCOURAGED RIGHT OF EVERY NRHA MEMBER, PROFESSIONAL OR NOT, THE RISK HERE IS THAT BY MANDATING NRHA PROFESSIONALS MEMBERSHIP, A FEW HIGH PROFILE TRAINERS MAY BE UNJUSTLY CLAIMING TO REPRESENT ALL PROFESSIONALS, WHETHER THEY ARE SUPPORTED BY THE MAJORITY OF NRHA TRAINERS OR NOT.
