We are sending letters to the corporate leadership of the ALEC to demand that they withdraw their membership from ALEC and do what’s right for our democracy.<br>

Take Action!

TELL ALEC COMPANIES TO STAND DOWN!

For the past year, the Center for Media and Democracy has worked to expose the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), through its ongoing ALECexposed.org investigation into ALEC's operations, lobbying, and "model" bills voted on behind closed doors by corporate lobbyists and legislators voting as equals. ALEC's extreme agenda has included templates to change our laws to make it harder for juries to hold vigilantes who kill people accountable, for American citizens to vote, for Congress to limit the distorting and corrupting influence of money in our elections, and numerous other bills that undermine the rights and opportunities of Americans. Please join us in reaching out to corporate members of ALEC to demand that they stop bankrolling ALEC and stop corrupting the democratic process. Tell them to dump ALEC!
