I'd like to suggest some alternate wording, please: Cross out "Legislative committees are", insert "The American Legislative Exchange Council is".

On Politics: 'Unprecedented' bipartisan legislative committee met once during session. (Wisconsin State Journal, 4/15/2014)

Curiously, the State Journal makes no mention here of ALEC.

• Vos did not respond to a request for comment Tuesday.

Paying attention. The most important group, I’m pretty sure, is the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), which was founded in 1973 by Henry Hyde, Lou Barnett, and (surprise, surprise) Paul Weyrich. Its goal for the past forty years has been to draft “model bills” that conservative legislators can introduce in the 50 states.
