ALEC has given Republicans an agenda to achieve goals. Some of these are:

Voter ID laws - to disenfranchise voters that tend to vote democratic.
Abortion facility laws - get rid of facilities in states, and no abortions can be performed even though it's legal
Gun control - loosen gun control laws, pass "stand your ground" laws
-----------------------------------

PA State Representative Republican Mike Turzai, admits GOP voter ID laws are intended to help Republicans win.

During a speech to the Republican State Committee's summer meeting in Hershey on Saturday, Rep. Mike Turzai, R-Allegheny, ticked off what he said were the GOP's achievements during its nearly two years in control of the General Assembly and the governor's office.

Quote:
"Pro-Second Amendment? The Castle Doctrine. It's done," said Turzai, whose remarks were captured on video and posted to the video-sharing site YouTube. "First pro-life legislation — abortion facility regulations — in 22 years. Done. Voter ID, which is going to allow Gov. Romney to win the state of Pennsylvania. Done."
