Save Tennessee From ALEC
Via its "Model Legislation" (some of which has come to the floor of the Tennessee State Legislature with it's very name emblazoned across the top), ALEC is proliferating an ultra-conservative agenda upon the citizens of Tennessee. As a 501(c)(3), this is in direct contravention of the legal elective process. It is also in direct conflict with it's corporate status.
We petition our State Government, our County governments, and our local governments to immediately enact legislation and/or ordinances which criminalize the presence of ALEC in our legislative process, deny our legislators the right to have membership (paid or otherwise) in this organization as a direct conflict of their Oaths of Office, and deny by criminal law any further direct contact with any person currently holding (or having held within the past four election cycles) elective public office.

Why is this important?
A private corporation, along with its Tennessee Government, Legislators', County Commisions' and local Court Houses' members have coordinated a State-wide assault on our citizens, our rights, our safety, and our lives. The American Legislative Executive Council (ALEC) must be removed from, and prohibited from either direct or indirect influence on our elected leaders at all levels of our State's governance.
