ALEC (American Legislative Exchange Council) is a national organization of corporations and legislators started by the Koch brothers. ALEC helps write laws that negatively affect Hoosiers.

WHY BE CONCERNED?

• ALEC promotes private school use of money set aside for public schools
• ALEC helps private prisons retain more inmates for longer sentences, thus earning greater profit for the prison industrial complex
• ALEC discriminates against the LGBTQ community (remember the RFRA outrage!)
• ALEC fights labor unions and the good they do for honest working people
