How does the GOP keep winning? For one, it’s studied the historic political power of unions.
If you’re wondering what the electoral path forward is in 2020, just look at what the Republicans are doing. Over the past decade, the GOP has moved in lockstep to take over state legislatures and other local offices, pressing its agenda at every level. The party has had the backing of well-financed groups that in turn expect their limited-government, free market legislation to be prioritized.
. We talked about the political ecosystem conservatives built from the ground up, and whether Democrats can assemble anything like it. Our conversation has been edited and condensed for clarity.If you picture a map of the U.S., with the states colored red or blue depending on which party controls the legislatures, there are more red states. That’s because Republicans have prioritized gaining control of statehouses and using that power aggressively.
Many state legislatures don’t give lawmakers the proper resources to make policy. ALEC provides all of those resources: the ideas behind the bills, the polling that they would need to pass, a hotline that lawmakers can call if they want help drafting a piece of legislation or coming up with a good argument. ALEC essentially serves as a private research assistant for state legislators.
