Revoked in 2016

Minnesota Gun Rights’ website says the group is a nonprofit and a 501(c)(4). But the IRS revoked the group’s tax-exempt status in 2016, the agency’s website indicates.

The group does not appear on the IRS master list of nonprofits. Guidestar, a website that allows users to see nonprofits’ financial information, says Minnesota Gun Rights is not registered with the IRS.

Minnesota Gun Rights has brought in $220,000 a year, according to promotional materials about the group obtained by FOX 9. But, there is no evidence that the group has filed 990s, the annual form that nonprofits use to show how much money they’ve accepted and how they’re spending it.

“We do file 990s,” Ben Dorr told FOX 9 after Saturday’s rally. Told there was no evidence of that, he said, “Well, I think you should go look it up again and that stuff should all be on there very shortly.”

Dorr refused to say how much money he or Chris Dorr have been paid from the group.

“You’d have to take that up with the board of directors. We are not allowed to talk about any of this stuff,” Ben Dorr said, as his brother attempted to cut off the interview. “You’re standing here asking gotcha questions to try to push us into a corner. I guess that’s the only reason fake news comes out to gun rights rallies.”
