You’ve probably seen the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) in the news by now. ALEC is a far-right organization that makes it possible for big corporations to help write legislation. ALEC paved the way to strip away workers' rights in Wisconsin and Michigan, and the “Shoot First” law that let Trayvon Martin’s killer walk free for so long. ALEC’s model legislation also was used to pass “Voter ID” laws in 9 states since 2010, making it harder for students, seniors, and low-income people to vote.

Because of grassroots pressure, 10 major companies like Coca-Cola and Intuit have recently dropped their ties with ALEC.

A few large companies are still funding ALEC’s right-wing agenda. Click here to sign our petition to tell AT&T, State Farm and Johnson & Johnson to stop funding the American Legislative Exchange Council.

Today ALEC announced they would no longer be focusing their efforts on extreme gun laws and suppressing voters. This is great news, but we’re not done yet.

Helping the biggest banks on Wall Street, destroying worker protections, and guarding tax giveaways to wealthy CEOs and millionaires are all still on ALEC’s agenda. We need to keep the pressure on their corporate sponsors and get ALEC far away from the democratic process.
