From the supplier: The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) wants state legislatures to pass a model law designed to proclaim the power of legislators to change common law despite judicial review. The authority for states to do so comes from a legal principle in place since the time of statehood, says Victor Schwartz, a lawyer for ALEC. Judges have been establishing new causes of action for tort cases and rejecting legislative attempts at reform.
