This site is built by ordinary people, like you, who are concerned about the excessive influence of corporations on our laws and our lives.
Ground Rules:
Focus on the facts. We do not require a "neutral point of view." We are seeking editors concerned about ALEC's efforts to achieve the agenda of big corporations.
Be accurate. The standard for adding information to this collaborative site is that it be accurate.
Cite sources. This site is focused on building core information on ALEC's activities to help the American people understand this organization and to aid journalists and activists. Accordingly, we are seeking primary sources as well as other documentation to build the record of the breadth and depth of ALEC's efforts to rewrite the laws governing our lives and our democracy, in states across the country and in Congress.
Commentary is welcomed. The site will include space for additional commentary and discussion, other than within the articles.
Don't bury the lead! We ask you to put the important material first, and then the rest in descending order of importance. Don't bury the lead
and waste "above-the-fold" space on minutiae.
Be bold. You are helping to write history.
