Walker feted at ALEC - - minus dozens of former members

Yes, Walker spoke at the national ALEC gathering in San Diego with legislative lapdog State Sen. Leah Vukmir at his side, but let's add to the record that, a) Koch interests have been instrumental in founding and funding the right-wing bill-writing mill, and b)  more than 100 US businesses have left ALEC because of public pressure against its extremist and divisive advocacy.

Here's one story from 2012 with a couple of typical examples of ALEC quitters:

Coca-Cola Co. and Kraft Foods Inc. bowed to consumer pressure this week and cut ties with the American Legislative Exchange Council, a conservative lobbying group that has recently backed controversial voter ID and so-called “stand your ground” laws

ALEC is a key cog in the right-wing policy machine; it's hardly news that Walker appeared there, nor is the group mainstream.
