State Legislation Resembling ALEC "Models," by State

State Legislation Resembling ALEC "Models," by Topic

Environment

The EPA's Regulatory Train Wreck is a campaign of the American Legislative Exchange Council aimed at rolling back and dismantling environmental regulation.[102] If the campaign is successful, it would benefit many of ALEC's corporate members.

Bills and Resolutions Proposed and Passed

A number of states have taken action in favor of ALEC's position on the environment and environmental regulation. ALEC's website lists the following bills and resolutions:[103]

  • Alabama House Joint Resolution 197 (adopted 4/14/11)
  • Alaska House Joint Resolution 22
  • Florida House Memorial 1375
  • Florida Senate Resolution 1260
  • Illinois House Resolution 265
  • Illinois Senate Resolution 171
  • Indiana House Resolution 13 (adopted 1/24/11)[104]
  • Indiana Senate Resolution 39 (adopted 4/5/11)
  • Iowa House Resolution 52 (adopted 5/6/11)
  • Iowa House Study Bill 61
  • Kansas House Resolution 6008 (adopted 3/28/11)
  • Kentucky Senate Resolution 116 (adopted 3/3/11)
  • Kentucky House Concurrent Resolution 126
  • Michigan House Resolution 19 (adopted 3/2/11)
  • Michigan Senate Resolution 10 (adopted 2/24/11)
  • Minnesota Senate File 322
  • Missouri House Concurrent Resolution 42 (adopted 5/11/11)
  • Missouri Senate Concurrent Resolution 13
  • Montana Senate Joint Resolution 10 (adopted 4/1/11)
  • North Dakota House Concurrent Resolution 3028 (adopted 3/28/11)
  • Ohio House Concurrent Resolution 15
  • Oklahoma Senate Concurrent Resolution 13
  • Pennsylvania House Resolution 87 (adopted 5/3/11)
  • Pennsylvania House Resolution 233
  • Texas House Concurrent Resolution 66
  • Texas Senate Concurrent Resolution 20
  • Utah House Joint Resolution 19 (adopted 3/2/11)
  • Virginia Senate Resolution 29
  • Virginia House Resolution 72 (adopted 2/23/11)
  • Wyoming Senate Joint Resolution 6 (adopted 2/18/11)

Federal-level legislation resembling ALEC bills

  • HR 2018, the "Clean Water Cooperative Federalism Act of 2011" sponsored by John Mica (R-FL) and Nick Rahall (D-WV), bears a striking resemblance to several pieces of ALEC model legislation. HR 2018 would allow states to opt out of abiding by federal water quality standards if they disagree with them, and it would prevent the EPA from making changes to the Clean Water Act's water quality standards without first getting states' approval. The bill resembles several similar ALEC model bills, including the "State Sovereignty Through Local Coordination Act," The "State Implementation of the Clean Water Act Requirements," "State Sovereignty for Air Quality and Visibility Act," the "State Protection of Air Quality Related Values Act" and the "Resolution to Retain State Authority over Coal Ash as Non-Hazardous Waste." The fact that the bill was introduced at the federal level may indicate ALEC's influence has grown beyond state houses.[105]

ALEC efforts to influence Federal Legislation
