Regulations, Taxes, and Medical transparency: ALEC in The Center Square
Calls for bold reform open day two of ALEC's Annual Meeting in Indianapolis
Ashley Olds from The Center Square recently covered ALEC’s 52nd Annual Meeting in Indianapolis with a focus on key policy discussions including ESG investing, tax regulations, and medical transparency.
Thursday marked the second day of the annual American Legislative Exchange Council meeting, where state legislators, policy experts, and business leaders gathered to discuss policy priorities and model legislation.
In her opening statement, Republican state Sen. Patricia Rucker of West Virginia highlighted the diverse challenges faced by state lawmakers.
“For some of them, it might be education policy and empowering parents,” Rucker began. “For others, it might be tax reform or trying to roll back government regulations on businesses.”
To kick off the session, Rucker introduced Will Hild, executive director of Consumers’ Research, who addressed the growing pushback against Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) investing.
