Wyoming faces an ongoing saga of attemps by ALEC to steer legislation while pretending that all of their actions are homegrown. Luckily Casper's Star Tribune is a little too quick to fall for that line and is calling ALEC out for its corporate-backing.
As the Star Tribune makes clear, the problem with ALEC isn't its public claim to believe in a Jeffersonian line of conservatism -- limited government, federalism, and fiscal restraint. Instead, the problem is that ALEC's real focus is on corporate profit and hurting liberals for purely political gain.
Principled conservative legislators are a breath of fresh air when compared to the corporate tools who work on ALEC's behalf in statehouses across the country. It's clear that Wyomingites are waking up to that fact. That's a good sign for their state.
