The national organization has the deep pockets. If you are a PI lawyer and you have a client who is injured and has a lot of bills you go after the money. In reality, you name each of the chapter members (or the executive counsel), the chapter as an entity, maybe the HCB and the national org. A single lawsuit with a big plaintiff's verdict could wipe out most of our national organizations.
