ALEC: For-Profit Environmental Destruction
We often wonder why our energy policies are going down the toilet.
Well, when you take a look at the Energy Task Force of the ALEC Task Force Committee Roster as of 6/30/2011
as found on the Common Cause Webpage – you get a pretty good idea why our energy policies are going to hell in a hand basket at the state and federal levels and the reason is the American Legislative Exchange Council corporate profit sector members manipulating energy legislation through ALEC “model” legislation.
The roster shows that there are 233 members.
A recent review of the roster shows that 138 of the members are ALEC legislators.
Then you have 95 environmental antagonists on the task force–Fossil fuel ALEC profit Sector members…Climate denying, ALEC “we work for the profit sector”, “nonprofit members”…Tea Party members… Representatives of the most polluting companies in America.
Our tax dollars – paying for state and federal employees to sit with ALEC Corporate Members – to destroy our environment.
Corporations…
an equal voice – an equal vote…
on ALEC model legislation.
You don’t like ALEC legislation?
Too damn bad – ALEC legislators will FORCE it on you!!!!
We MUST make sure that ALL ALEC legislators are not elected or re-elected!!!!
