ALEC is the acronym for The American Legislative Exchange Council. As much as this organization would like you to believe it is non-partisan, it's principles and practices clearly identify it as a conservation group with a heavy pro-business leaning. This organization is sponsored by big corporations like AT&T, UPS, ExxonMobil, Wal-Mart, Pfizer and Verizon. The laws and policies that this entity recommends benefit these big businesses sometimes to the detriment of consumers. For example, ALEC has crafted laws that make it harder to sue corporations in cases where their products harm consumers. ALEC is busy writing laws that will affect your child's education.
