Found this tonight when surfing the web

Irritation does not even come close to the way I feel about this paragraph.

News21, a national journalism collaboration funded by the Carnegie Corporation of New York and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, found that “more than half of the state bills proposing photo IDs” came from legislators with ties to the American Legislative Exchange Council.

found that “more than half of the state bills proposing photo IDs” came from legislators with ties to the American Legislative Exchange Council.

HELL – they probably ALL came from ALEC legislators.

Why would I say that?

WE DO NOT KNOW who all the current ALEC legislators are!

Legislators hide their membership with the American Legislative Exchange Council.

ALEC hides the memberships of  legislators with ALEC.

WE DO NOT KNOW who all the current ALEC legislators are!

ALEC CLAIMS over 2,000 legislative members and we have NOT documented over 2,000 current legislators.

We have only documented a little over 1,000 legislative members of ALEC.

Sloppy reporting!

Misleading reporting!

The phrase should be

“suspect that ALL of the state bills proposing photo IDs” came from legislators with ties to the Aemrican Legislative Exchange Council.

We don’t know because ALEC is a deceitful, secretive organization that hides it’s member lists and many ALEC members have historically LIED about their involvement with the American Legislative Exchange Council.

REMINDER:

ALEC CLAIMS over 2,000 legislative members and we have NOT documented over 2,000 current legislators.

We have only documented a little over 1,000 legislative members of ALEC.
