Submitted by PRWatch Editors [2] on
Join the Center for Media and Democracy at this year's Netroots Nation conference in San Jose, California. On Friday, June 21, CMD is hosting a panel called "ALECexposed: Strategies and Tactics for our 2013 Campaign" [3] taking place at 10:30am in the Town Square. See the panel description here [3].
This session will focus on the strategies and tactics being used by groups and individuals working to expose ALEC, including our work on ALECexposed.org [4] and our reporting on ALEC at PRWatch.org [5]. It will include new angles to our corporate campaign, new tactics in our outreach to legislators and new research on ALEC "stink tanks" and on immigration, guns, voting, climate, federal legislation among other issues.
The panel will feature Rashad Robinson of Color of Change, Rep. Mark Pocan (newly elected Congressman from Wisconsin's 2nd district), Aniello Alioto of ProgressNow, and Marge Baker of People For the American Way.
If you are attending Netroots Nation 2013 in San Jose, we'd love to see you at our panel on Friday morning at 10:30am for a lively discussion about how to fight back against ALEC's influence in our states. Please let us know you are coming by joining our Facebook event here [6].
