    This list is a comprehensive list of state legislators who are members of ALEC (American Legislative Exchange Council). There are 1192 Republicans, 61 Democrats, 11 Non-Partisans (NE) members. There have been 45 members who have left ALEC in the last month; 11 Republicans, 32 Democrats, 2 Non-Partisans (NE) (Corporate Campaign). There have been 108 ALEC Legislators who have either lost or given up their seats. These are the people who are carrying out the extreme right -wing agenda in the states. They go to all expense paid ALEC meetings where they get treated to lavish accommodations, meals and entertainment for the small price of destroying our democracy. They target minorities, workers, women and democratically elected city and school board members. They push privatization as the answer when it has been proven that it is less efficient and more costly. The Kochs were funding the reintroduction of segregation into a school district in NC.
