American Legislative Exchange Council

The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) is a nonprofit organization that connects state legislators and private sector stakeholders to develop and promote model policies on various issues, such as economic growth, education, and governance. It provides a platform for collaboration where members draft policy proposals, which often reflect conservative principles. These model policies can then be introduced and enacted as laws in state legislatures across the U.S. If adopted, they influence local and state government decisions, shaping legal and policy landscapes nationwide.
