Buying Legislation - It's a Deal at Any Price

How much does it cost in the United States of America
to be able to write, review and vote on legislation
that will be implemented at the state level
without ever being elected to office?

If you ask a corporate member of the
American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC),
“How much does that cost?”

The ALEC corporate member will tell you…
“This is what it costs and it’s a deal at any price!”
