Five more corporations abandon the ‘bill mill’ ALEC
Amid complaints from liberal and progressive groups, five corporations have dropped their support for the right-wing policy group called the American Legislative Exchange Council.
General Electric, The Western Union Company, Sprint Nextel Corporation, Symantec Corporation, and Reckitt Benckiser Group all told Color Of Change that they no longer supported ALEC.
“These significant developments, coupled with recent withdrawals from ALEC by companies like Walgreens and GM, further prove that everyday people working together to hold corporations accountable can achieve tremendous change,” said ColorOfChange.org Executive Director Rashad Robinson.
