ALEC is a conservative organization with 98% Republican membership.

That seems like a contradiction. I cannot think of any conservative policies advanced lately by the Republican leadership.

No, it's not. Conservative corporate policies desire restoration of a regressive, apartheid theocracy... think Clarence Thomas and Scalia.

That is hardly a conservative goal; it is radically reactionary. Actually conservative policies would resist change, not seek it out.
