Kendrick B. Meek Senior Advisor Government Advocacy and Public Policy Washington, D.C.: +1 202 626 5613 [email protected] Kendrick B. Meek currently serves as a senior advisor to a diverse group of companies in the healthcare, homeland security, agriculture, and financial services sectors, drawing upon strategic skills developed over a long tenure in politics, including his time in the U.S. House of Representatives, Florida State Legislature, and as Special Representative to the United Nations. From 2002 to 2010, Mr. Meek represented the 17th Congressional District of Florida. During his time in Washington, Congressman Meek’s open-minded and bipartisan outlook allowed him to navigate a broad cross-section of Congress in order to achieve results for his constituents. Building on a strong legislative record in the Florida Senate and Florida House of Representatives, Congressman Meek was able to secure a spot on the House Ways and Means Committee. In that capacity, he was successful in sponsoring and passing legislation focused on tax, trade and healthcare issues. While in Congress, Mr. Meek devoted significant energy to engaging younger Americans in the political process by pushing for fresh ideas in Washington. He was the youngest Member of Congress to serve as Chairperson of the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, and he was recently named Director Emeritus - one of only two former Members who has held this position. Mr. Meek works with U.S. corporations to develop and strengthen their corporate social responsibility initiatives. Mr. Meek is also deeply steeped in matters related to homeland security and international affairs. In 2011, President Obama appointed him as Special Representative to the United Nations. While in Congress, he was appointed to the NATO Parliamentary Assembly and served on both the House Armed Services and Homeland Security Committees. In those roles, he traveled extensively throughout Europe, Africa and the Middle East, engaging with foreign leaders on international security and trade matters.

IAPAC focuses exclusively on domestic policy issues such as civil rights and immigration, and it encourages Americans of Iranian descent to actively participate in civic affairs. Mission • To support and promote the election of candidates for federal, state and local office, regardless of party affiliation, who are attuned to the domestic needs and issues of the Iranian American community • To support and promote Iranian American participation in civic affairs Issue Advocacy Civil Liberties: Balancing Civil Liberties and National Security in the Post-9/11 Era. Protecting our security and ensuring that the government does not infringe upon basic constitutional rights have long been important issues for civil libertarians and certain ethnic communities.

Rubio Still Up, but Two-Way with Crist Would Be Tied
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 12, 2010 INTERVIEWS: DEAN DEBNAM 888-621-6988 / 919-880-4888 (serious media inquiries only please, other questions can be directed to Tom Jensen) QUESTIONS ABOUT THE POLL: TOM JENSEN 919-744-6312 Rubio Still Up, But Two-Way with Crist Would Be Tied Raleigh, N.C. – PPP has not polled the Florida Senate race since the weekend before the late-August primary, but the outlook remains the same: with independent Charlie Crist and actual Democratic nominee Kendrick Meek splitting Democrats, Republican Marco Rubio is cruising to a double-digit win in a three-way contest. If Meek were to drop out at this late stage, however, the gap between Crist and Rubio would vanish. Rubio has 44% to Crist’s 33% and Meek’s 21%. Amid speculation that a deal may be in place for Meek to exit the race, this poll confirms the hunch that the result would be a dead heat between the remaining two, with Crist and Rubio each at 46%. Virtually all of Meek’s independent support would move to Crist, but only some of his Democratic support. Democrats are split in the three-way, Crist at 42% and Meek at 41%, and Crist wins independents 50-27-19 over Rubio and Meek. Against just Rubio, Crist would win Democrats only 69-20 and independents 66-31, versus Rubio’s 80-14 lead with the GOP. Republicans make up almost as much of the electorate, at 40%, as Democrats’ 41%. Part of Rubio clinging onto a healthy lead and even a tie in the two-way with Crist is that the enthusiasm gap for Republicans has grown since August, from almost 6 points to almost 10 points.
