美國立法交流委員會( American Legislative Exchange Council，ALEC) 是一個由美國保守主義州立法者和私營部門代表組成的非營利組織，他們會起草法律草稿，並將其分發給美國各州政府閱覽。[2] [3] [4]
美國立法交流委員會已經就減少個人和公司的稅收、打擊非法移民、放鬆環境監管、削弱工會和反對槍枝管制制定一些法律草稿。[5] [6] [7] [8]其中一些草稿法案進入了亞利桑那州、威斯康星州、科羅拉多州、密歇根州、新罕布殊爾州和緬因州等州的立法議程。[9]每年大約有200份該組織制定的草稿法案成為法律。[5]

[ALEC] provide[s] direct assistance to state legislators and firms eager to minimize any state government engagement in environmental protection. ALEC's membership base includes nearly one-third of all sitting state legislators and most of its resources are derived from corporations and trade associations. It offers regular conferences and training sessions but is perhaps best known for drafting model bills that can easily be adopted by an individual state and introduced into a legislature.
