    2018-Mid-Year-Political-Contributions

    1 Verizon Political Activity January – June 2018 A Message from Craig Silliman Verizon is affected by a wide variety of government policies -- from telecommunications regulation to taxation to health care and more -- that have an enormous impact on the business climate in which we operate. We owe it to our shareowners, employees and customers to advocate public policies that will enable us to compete fairly and freely in the marketplace. Political contributions are one way we support the democratic electoral process and participate in the policy dialogue. Our employees have established political action committees at the federal level and in 18 states. These political action committees (PACs) allow employees to pool their resources to support candidates for office who generally support the public policies our employees advocate. This report lists all PAC contributions, corporate political contributions, support for ballot initiatives and independent expenditures made by Verizon and its affiliates during the first half of 2018. The contribution process is overseen by the Corporate Governance and Policy Committee of our Board of Directors, which receives a comprehensive report and briefing on these activities at least annually. We intend to update this voluntary disclosure twice a year and publish it on our corporate website. We believe this transparency with respect to our political spending is in keeping with our commitment to good corporate governance and a further sign of our responsiveness to the interests of our shareowners. Craig L. Silliman Executive Vice President, Public Policy and General Counsel 2 Verizon Political Activity January – June 2018 Political Contributions Policy: Our Voice in the Democratic Process What are the Verizon Political Action Committees? regulations govern many aspects of the contributions process including the setting of monetary contribution limitations and The Verizon Political Action Committees (PACs) exist to help the establishment of periodic reporting requirements.

    2018 FPA Contribution Strategy RECOMMENDATIONS

    2018 FPA Contribution Strategy RECOMMENDATIONS HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Rep. Cord Byrd (REP) District 11 Rep. Byrd sponsored our collaborative practice bill this year and worked very closely with the FPA to try and push the bill to the finish line. He would be an excellent choice to carry the bill again next year. Rep. Byrd was on Health Quality Committee and voted for our Test and Treat bill. Rep. Travis Cummings (REP) District 18 Rep. Cummings was Chair of the Health and Human Services committee and very helpful in pushing our PBM bill through. He is supportive of collaborative practice as well. Rep. Paul Renner (REP) District 24 Rep. Renner has been concerned with PBM maleficence since we ran our closed networks bill in 2016. He was written a letter to AHCA to look into PBM behavior and has been supportive of our issues since being elected in a special election in 2015. He was elected Speaker-Designate by his class so will prove to be a powerful ally. Rep. David Santiago (REP) District 27 Rep.

    State Issues

    Week of January 14, 2019 State Issues Legislative Analyst This week, the Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) released its overview of Governor Newsom’s budget proposal for FY Report on State 2019-20 that was presented last week, and saw a new leader selected to lead this non-partisan organization. The Budget Legislature appointed a new state Legislative Analyst to fill the role Mac Taylor has held for 10 years. They named Gabriel Petek to the post, who most recently worked for Standard and Poor’s Global Ratings San Francisco Office where he is currently the state’s primary credit analyst. He takes the reins on February 4. In addition to getting a new chief, the LAO released its overview of the Governor’s January budget highlighting that that state’s budget position continues to be strong. They also focus on the fact that the Governor’s proposed budget prioritizes the repayments of state debts and a great deal of one-time funding. Nearly half of the discretionary spending is earmarked to pay down state liabilities, including unfunded retirement liabilities and budget debts. Twenty-five (25) percent of the discretionary spending is for one time or temporary funding proposals, and 15 percent for discretionary reserves. The LAO applauds the Governor’s decision to focus on the repayment of state debts. The LAO points out one thing that many took note of – the Governor has outlined many priorities for budgetary spending. And at least some of the proposals are not fully fleshed out or reflected in the budget document. The LAO was not critical of this but pointed out that these un-finalized proposals give the Legislature the opportunity to weigh in with the Administration and have their say in its development.
