ALEC, on the other hand, provides model legislation for everything under the sun, it appears.

There's also this NCSL item from 1996:  Model Code of Conduct for Legislative Staff.

Code of conduct?   ALEC recently considered initiating a loyalty oath

 “I will act with care and loyalty and put the interests of the organization first”

for state chairmen, a tone-deaf proposal even for this group.
