Center for Media and Democracy has this up on Bill Moyers covering the dirty dealings of American Legislative Exchange Council. It states that this was all over the nation on PBS stations this weekend. If it was on my local station, I saw no advertisement of it, so I missed it. (Boy, do I miss FW, which has such a kick butt public radio station, and three PBS stations, as well. )
Luckily, there is a link here to watch the show online. Also, there is a link for finding out which of your own state’s representatives belong to ALEC. I found a couple of surprises, there, such as Win Moses, who was the former mayor of Fort Wayne, and John Gregg, the guy who just ran for governor. Mike Pence was not listed, but yeah, he seems to be doing their bidding:

See…this exposure of ALEC is a double-edged sword–you’re getting the word out and people are paying attention, but they (ALEC) will find ways around it by people who are off in the wings, such as Atkins.
