For five
decades, the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) has
shamelessly served as a conduit for large corporations seeking to
swiftly advance their self-serving agendas through statehouses across
the nation. ALEC’s model bills go far beyond
financial gains for these corporate entities – these legislative
blueprints pose severe threats to our environment, racial justice and
the vitality of our democracy.
Join us on Wednesday, Oct. 4, 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm for the “ALEC (slow) Extinction Watch Party and Rally” in DC in front of the entrance to ALEC’s 50th anniversary gallery at DC’s National Portrait Gallery.
Speakers will present on the 50 years of harm ALEC bills have caused to their communities and the vision and solutions we share for an inclusive multiracial democracy.
Together we will build a movement for an inclusive multiracial democracy. Sponsored by: Greenpeace USA, Center for Media and Democracy, Public Citizen, People for the American Way, UnKoch My Campus, Common Cause, True North Research, Union of Concerned Scientists, Rethink Media.
