MN ALEC members and area's they are suppose to Represent. And ALEC bills in Legislature. [View all]

I found the Truth to Tell show from this morning incase you want to hear the guests.
They discuss the destructive bills they have put through MN Legislature that where an ALEC template.

I hope MN can blow A.L.E.C. out the water. I hope we can get MN to reject all MN A.L.E.C. Members.

this list is from A.L.E.C. exposed. I added their cities/towns in their districts and what committees they are on.

So is your Rep or Senator on this list and are they serving the public or Corporations that are members of ALEC ?

Ask your GOP friends who go to their caucus to ask their MN Senators and Reps if they are a member of ALEC and what bills did they take from ALEC.
