We’re reaching out to these important groups and working harder to meet their needs. We're also working harder to engage all stakeholders in the dialogue on health policy and actively participate in the discussion over how to improve the quality of healthcare, access to medicines, and incentives for innovation.

This report includes a list of candidates and political committees that Pfizer PAC supported during the 2005-06 election cycle.
