Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2011 Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2011 2 VERIZON POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS JANUARY – DECEMBER 2011 Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2011 2 A Message from Tom Tauke 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 25 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, and independent expenditures made by Verizon in 2011. 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.

Tauke Executive Vice President Public Affairs, Policy & Communications Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2011 3 Political Contributions: Our Voice in the Political Process What are the Verizon Good Government Clubs? established by the statutes and the government agencies The Verizon Good Government Clubs (GGCs) exist to help administering the federal and individual state election the people of Verizon participate in America’s electoral laws.

  • February 15, 2021 Dear Governor Wolf
    February 15, 2021 Dear Governor Wolf: CompetePA is a coalition comprised of statewide and regional business groups, small- and medium- sized businesses, as well as Fortune 500 companies. The coalition, which represents more than half the Commonwealth’s private sector employers, was formed in 2005 to help create a competitive business tax climate that encourages job growth in Pennsylvania. On behalf of over 160 businesses and organizations across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the CompetePA Coalition writes in opposition to the proposed tax increases to businesses, large and small across Pennsylvania, as laid out in your 2021-22 budget proposal. It is no secret that Pennsylvania has one of the least competitive business tax environments in the country. For 2021, we rank 43rd in the nation in the Tax Foundation’s “Corporate Tax Ranking”. At 9.99 percent, we have the highest non-graduated Corporate Net Income Tax (CNIT) rate in the country. While we appreciate your proposal to lower this rate, tying the rate reduction to combined reporting – a policy that adds complexity, uncertainty, and cost to business – ultimately further negatively impacts Pennsylvania’s competitive standing. While CompetePA has historically focused on just the CNIT rate and its structure, we would be remiss if we also didn’t share our opposition to the proposal to raise the Personal Income Tax (PIT) rate. Our PIT rate is one of the most competitive rates in the country, at 3.07 percent. It’s also the rate paid by many small businesses in our Commonwealth. As regions everywhere look to recover and thrive in a post-pandemic world, now more than ever we need to ensure Pennsylvania is competitively positioned versus the competition.

  • Advocacy 101
    ADVOCACY 101 Best Practices Toolkit Updated January 2017 Best Practices for Calling Your Legislator A few calls into an office over a short period of time can bring an issue to the attention of your legislator in a big way! When making a call remember the following tips: When connecting to a legislator’s office, let the staffer know that you are a constituent or community member and what issue or bill you are calling about. More than likely you’ll speak only with the staffer who will relay the message to your elected official. Keep it simple and brief. Staff receive a high volume of phone calls every day, so state your name, how you want your lawmaker to vote and why, and thank staffers for their time. Know your facts. Have the basic information about the bill in front of you when you call and be able to specifically name and describe the bill and your opinion on what your legislator should do. Don’t sweat the hypothetical unanswerable question. Some advocates worry that they will be asked a question they don’t know how to answer. Staffers typically focus on recording the message rather than asking for intricate details; however, if they do ask a question that you don’t know the answer to, tell them you’ll find out and call back. Just remember to follow up with the information! Be courteous and respectful – like your mama taught you. Best Practices for Writing Your Legislator Concise, well thought-out personal letters are one of the most effective and time-honored traditions of influencing South Carolina lawmakers.

  • March 30, 2020 the Honorable Tom Wolf Governor of Pennsylvania 225
    March 30, 2020 The Honorable Tom Wolf Governor of Pennsylvania 225 Main Capitol Harrisburg, PA 17120 RE: U.S. Department of Homeland Security memorandum regarding residential construction Dear Governor Wolf: As we are sure you are aware, on March 28th the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued a new “Advisory Memorandum on Identification of Essential Critical Infrastructure Workers During COVID-19 Response”. We write today asking that you review this memorandum and consider placing all residential construction on your essential business list as the memorandum identifies. This would include your guidance to all “essential businesses” on proper safety protocols, requiring social distancing measures which can protect the workforce and allow operations to continue. During this unprecedented time, we must put public health and safety first. Operational critical infrastructure is vital during the response to the COVID-19 emergency for both public health and safety as well as community well-being. Critical infrastructure industries have a special responsibility in these times to continue operations, and the U.S. DHS has identified construction as one of those industries. In addition to the identified critical need of construction, we also believe this work, operated under the proper safety protocols, is essential now due to its role in continuing economic and societal functions post pandemic. We thank you for your time and attention to this matter and ask for your urgent consideration. Sincerely, Senator Joe Scarnati Senator Jake Corman Senator Patrick Browne President Pro Tempore Majority Leader Chair, Appropriations The Honorable Tom Wolf Page 2 March 30, 2020 Senator John Gordner Senator Bob Mensch Senator Ryan Aument Majority Whip Majority Caucus Chair Majority Caucus Secretary Senator Kim Ward Senator David Argall Majority Caucus Administrator Chair, Majority Policy Committee .
