The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), a national organization of state legislators has issued an unusually sharp rebuke to Congressmen James Oberstar and Peter Defazio saying it "strongly opposes" their efforts to dissuade states from using public private partnerships for new road projects.

In a statement just issued ALEC says that the 10th Amerndment of the US Constitution makes it clear the states have the right to fund roads "as they see fit."
