  • 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 | Virginia YOUR LEGISLATORS’ VOTING RECORD ON VOTING RECORD SMALL BUSINESS ISSUES: 2017 EDITION Issues from the 2016 and 2017 General Assembly Sessions: Floor votes by your state legislators on key small business issues during the past two sessions of the Virginia General Assembly are listed inside. Although this Voting Record does not reflect all elements considered by a lawmaker when voting or represent a complete profile of a legislator, it can be a guide in evaluating your legislator’s attitude toward small business. Note that many issues that affect small business are addressed in committees and never make it to a floor vote in the House or Senate. Please thank those legislators who supported small business and continue to work with those whose scores have fallen short. 2016 Legislation 5.

  • 2020 VPAP Annual Report
    Staying Nimble FINDING NEW WAYS TO ELEVATE PUBLIC UNDERSTANDING Top of the News 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Ballot ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Letter from the Board Chair On many levels, 2020 was both historic and humbling. A global pandemic and economic crisis. Social unrest and calls for racial justice. Political extremism and democracy under siege. Any one of these topics would be enough to contend with in a normal year, but at once 2020 brought many issues into plain sight. What we learned last year is that at a time of uncertainty and upheaval, the public’s hunger for reliable news and information grows exponentially. The STAFF challenge for the Virginia Public Access Project was to meet that demand, while adapting to remote work and rethinking nearly every aspect of our operation. David M. Poole Executive Director We enhanced VaNews to add “Top of the News” for those who value a quick summary of headlines. We developed a COVID-19 dashboard to make it easy Ric Arenstein to track coronavirus cases and deaths as reported by the Virginia Department Major Gifts Officer of Health. And we modified our traditional election night coverage to account for early voting and delayed returns. Rachel Dominy Graphic Design and I am proud of the many ways, large and small, the VPAP team seized Communications Manager opportunity and adapted during such a challenging year. You will find a few of those instances outlined in this annual report. Jason Kostyk Data Developer All of this success was made possible by the encouragement and support of our nearly 1,500 donors.

  • THE LEGISLATIVE LINE the Legislative Update from VPAR Number 1 January 29, 2018 the More Things Change, the More They Stay the Same
    VIRGINIA PENINSUA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® THE LEGISLATIVE LINE The Legislative Update from VPAR Number 1 January 29, 2018 The more things change, the more they stay the same. With two full weeks in the books (and 44 days to go), the 2018 General Assembly session sometimes has felt like déjà vu all over again. In the House of Delegates, the new balance between the chastened GOP majority and rejuvenated Democratic caucus is not translating into waves of Democratic bills clearing the subcommittees and heading for the House floor. Because big-ticket issues like the state budget, Medicaid expansion and repealing the 2015 electric utility rate freeze probably will not be decided until late in the session, these early weeks have been dominated by many bills’ early deaths. As many of the freshmen in the House learned the hard way this week, even seemingly benign bills can go down in a flash if lawmakers see a flaw, whether it is a legal technicality, an unintended consequence or a similar law that already exists. And more seasoned lawmakers have not shied away from telling the recent arrivals that, even though they may be new, the Capitol’s perennial policy debates are not. MEANWHILE…the REALTOR® legislative agenda has garnered significant traction in the past few days. Read below for more details. And stay tuned. Look for the LEGISLATIVE LINE each week until adjournment. 1. Team Legislation – Delegate Chris Peace / Senator Glen Sturtevant HB 862 (Del. Chris Peace, R-97th, Mechanicsville) http://lis.virginia.gov/cgi-bin/legp604.exe?181+ful+HB862+pdf SB 758 (Sen.
