Kroll Miami Dade County - Mayor: Esteban “Steve” Bovo • AMENDMENT 2: RAISING FLORIDA’S MINIMUM WAGE to $15/Hour. • Ballot Summary: Raises minimum wage to $10.00 per hour effective September 30th, 2021. Each September 30th thereafter, minimum wage shall increase by $1.00 per hour until the minimum wage reaches $15.00 per hour on September 30th, 2026. From that point forward, future minimum wage increases shall revert to being adjusted annually for inflation starting September 30th, 2027. • Proponent: Florida For a Fair Wage – John Morgan of Morgan & Morgan • ABC Position: OPPOSE • Reasoning: ABC believes strongly in market-based principles and less government overreach. Our current market, even during a pandemic, remains healthy and many of our members are already offering above $15/hour starting salaries. Therefore, the market has done what it is meant to do. We do not need to amend our State Constitution with an arbitrary wage rate that may not be reflective of the current economy. • AMENDMENT 3: All Voters Vote in a Primary Elections for State Legislature, Governor Constitutional and Cabinet • Ballot Summary: Allows all registered voters to vote in primaries for state legislature, governor, and Amendments cabinet regardless of political party affiliation. All candidates for an office, including party nominated candidates, appear on the same primary ballot. Two highest vote getters advance to general election. If only two candidates qualify, no primary is held and winner is determined in general election. Candidate’s party affiliation may appear on ballot as provided by law. Effective January 1, 2024. • Proponent: All Voters Vote, Inc. • ABC Position: OPPOSE • Reasoning: this process would eliminate any roll of political parties. While at first glance, that may sound like a positive given the current state of politics, the actual impact of the process would be to allow money to buy seats. The two individuals with the most money behind them, no matter where it comes from, no matter their ideals or philosophies, will end up in a run-off. This scenario results in less transparency, predictability or accountability. • Other Opponents: Democratic Party of Florida, Republican Party of Florida, Florida Chamber of Commerce.

It is an honor to be associated with Audubon Florida’s work and together, we will continue to Executive Director address the important issues and achieve our mission to protect Julie Wraithmell birds and the places they need. We send a huge thank you to our outgoing Chair, Jud Laird, for his amazing work and Board of Directors leadership — the birds are better off because of your efforts! Summer is here! Locals and visitors alike enjoy sun, the beach, and Florida’s amazing Chair waterways. Our beaches are alive with nesting sea and shorebirds, and across the Heidi McCree Everglades we are wrapping up a busy wading bird breeding season. At the Center Vice-Chair for Birds of Prey, more than 200 raptor chicks crossed our threshold — and we Carol Colman Timmis released more than half back to the wild. As Audubon Florida’s newest Board Chair, I see the nesting season as a time to celebrate the resilience of birds, while looking Treasurer forward to how we can protect them into the migration season and beyond. We Scott Taylor will work with state agencies to make sure the high levels of conservation funding Secretary turn into real wins for both wildlife and communities (pg. 8). We will forge new Lida Rodriguez-Taseff partnerships to protect Lake Okeechobee and the Snail Kites that nest there (pg. 14).

    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.

    2017 Regular Voting Session of the Records Florida Legislature ASSOCIATED INDUSTRIES OF FLORIDA The Voice of Florida Business Since 1920 2017 CHAMPIONS for BUSINESSPage 25 AIF Voting Records • 2017 1 Dear Employer: It is my pleasure to provide you with this tabulation of the voting conduct of each member of the Florida Legislature during the 2017 Regular Session. Voting Records reports on the votes made by every legislator on bills that were advocated, promoted or opposed by Associated Industries of Florida (AIF). By reporting on 5,668 votes cast by legislators on 59 bills, this publication embodies the most exhaustive and complete record of the Tom C. Feeney President & Legislature’s approach to the concerns of Florida’s employers. Chief Executive Officer We go to great lengths to ensure that legislators are aware of AIF’s positions on issues of great importance to the business community. Every year before the session begins, we produce AIF’s Session Priorities, which explains why we support or oppose key issues. In addition, during the session we provide each legislator with a Daily Brief on the activities of that day, highlighting bills of interest to business and our positions on those issues. Our greatest asset, however, is our experienced and accomplished legislative team, which has compiled a record of success second to none. For 42 years AIF has published Voting Records yet, these records only tell part of the story. AIF also helps its member companies detect what bills and amendments are filed and by whom, and who is taking part in behind-the-scene efforts and debates on behalf of the busi- ness community.
