What Articles Need Work

If you are looking for a way to help with editing, you can note pages needing more work here or take on pages that have been put on this list. Before you add a page to the "missing" list, please be sure to look for it both on ALECexposed.org and on its sister site, SourceWatch.org. Articles on specific corporations and individuals are most likely located on SourceWatch, which is a specialized collaborative encyclopedia of the companies, people, and front groups attempting to influence public opinion and public policy.

  • Articles on each bill
  • Articles on what has happened in each state
  • Articles about additional politicians, corporations or non-profit groups (please create these on the SourcWatch site)

(This page includes tips from reporters, citizens journalists, and others identifying bills (introduced or passed) that resemble ALEC model legislation. CMD encourages the use of this forum and encourages further detailed research to verify all claims.)
