bad Democrats to drop their membership in ALEC.
Fantastic BUT Work is not done...
I took the time to quickly peruse ALEC WATCH's list of ALL the Politicians who are members of ALEC, along with their Task Force activity, and other factors. You can find these lists here.
Below the squiggle is the list I compiled of all who are noted to be DEMS and members of ALEC.
