What We Do
Comprised of nearly one-quarter of the country's state legislators and stakeholders from across the policy spectrum, ALEC members represent more than 60 million Americans and provide jobs to more than 30 million people in the United States.
ALEC is a forum for stakeholders to exchange ideas and develop real, state-based solutions to encourage growth, preserve economic security and protect taxpayers.
ALEC ideas and publications are the product of countless hours of research, debate and discussion and serve as a toolkit for anyone who wants to increase the effectiveness and reduce the size, reach and cost of government.
T.W. Lewis Foundation Support
T.W. Lewis Foundation is proud to support ALEC in its overall efforts to encourage the principles of limited government, free markets and federalism in all 50 states in America.
Testimonials
Not only does ALEC give me a sense of how lawmakers in other states are tackling similar problems, but their research and model policy gives me confidence as I draft and move legislation. - Arizona Representative Vince Leach
At ALEC conferences, discussing and analyzing different policy models with such a diverse group has been an invaluable resource in helping me develop and advance meaningful legislation that supports a vibrant private sector, job creation, and individual freedoms. - Nebraska State Senator Jim Smith
