Through ALEC, Global Corporations Are Scheming to Rewrite YOUR Rights and Boost THEIR Revenue

Business money
Through the corporate-funded American Legislative Exchange Council, global corporations and state politicians VOTE BEHIND CLOSED DOORS to rewrite laws in YOUR state that govern YOUR Rights. These so-called "model bills" erode protections for ordinary Americans in almost every area of law and often directly benefit huge corporations and their CEOs, thwarting reasonable regulation of corporate activities that affect our health, our economy, our environment, our democracy, and our liberty. Legislators are elected by the people to represent the people, not corporations. Through ALEC, corporations have "a VOICE and a VOTE" on specific changes to the law that are then proposed in YOUR state. DO YOU?
