The American Legislative Exchange Counsil

Alec stands for the american legislative exchange counsil. It buills itself as America's largest non partisan organization of state legislators dedicated to limited government, freemarkets and federalism. The thing that's so interesting here is that it is really following a play book that was set in motion by the anti abortion movement. They would write model abortion laws and then parcel them out to state legislatures and get them passed at the state level. And alic, it seems, is doing that well.
