Tell Amazon, Fedex, UPS & VISA: Stop funding ALEC

Tell Amazon, Fedex, UPS & VISA: Stop funding ALEC

The Issue

The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) has promoted the “stand your ground” laws highlighted in the tragic shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Florida; Arizona-style, anti-immigrant legislation; racially-discriminatory voter ID laws; and anti-environmental legislation.

Amazon, Fedex, UPS and VISA are all corporate members of ALEC, and through their contributions are supporting legislation that is detrimental to our communities.  

As consumers, shareholders, and concerned individuals we are asking the CEOs of Amazon, FedEx, UPS and VISA to end their membership and stop funding ALEC.
