Does anyone else think there seems to be coordination

[onecaliberal]

Among racist states to vote away protections for LGBTQ folks since Indiana?

1. Coordination and/or following,

ALEC and other similars likely help them.

2. Just seems all of the sudden legislation is coming from nowhere out of these states.

3. Not at all from 'nowhere,'

tptb, right-side, have vast resources. We're in trouble. And it's been happening for a long time, significantly including diminishing public education. 'They' want badly educated/informed church goers. (Rover said this, years ago.)

4. Indeed. Front groups create and disseminate "model legislation" on key issues.

[elleng]

5. Right. Among others,

Chamber of Commerce does that.

10. Not to mention

bussed in, paid pretend protesters and all that on top of all claims made above.

7. Why didn't we see it coming?

[brooklynite]

8. um, no?

What coordination are you seeing?

[onecaliberal]

9. Since Indiana a week ago 5 other states have passed similar legislation.

[brooklynite]

13. Many states with "part time" legislatures have a limited window in which to pass legislation.

14. The Kochs, through ALEC, have been working towards this for years.

They are also working on hampering solar and wind power, privatizing schools, and any other thing that would enhance the Koch prosperity and/or view of morality.
