Mr. Stoppelman,

The American Legislative Exchange Council, or ALEC, develops and disseminates model legislation that is detrimental to the lives of consumers, voters, workers and their families - in other words, your customers.

No matter your intentions in joining ALEC, by paying thousands of dollars to sit on a task force you are supporting their efforts: including but not limited to voter suppression, union-busting, the privatization of education, and so-called "Stand Your Ground" laws.

A company that claims to help people should have nothing to do with these efforts. Please immediately cut all ties between Yelp and the ALEC.
