Crowe -(LA-ALEC) - Double Dipping????????

In the news from Louisiana (my emphasis):

Thirteen state senators and representatives are on course to spend about $40,000 to attend legislative conferences around the United States in the coming days, according to Louisiana Senate and House records.

State Sen. A.G. Crowe, R-Slidell, is the only legislator on the American Legislative Exchange Council, which opened its meeting July 25 in Salt Lake City.

Fewer legislators are choosing to go to the summer conferences than in recent years — particularly the ALEC meeting, which only last year attracted 31 legislators when it was held in New Orleans and former state Sen. Noble Ellington was its national chairman.

Crowe’s Salt Lake City conference costs total nearly $2,800.

Is A G Crowe - Double Dipping??????????????????
