Illinois General Assembly April 12, 2021 Representative Elizabeth Hernandez Chair, House Redistricting Committee 109 Capitol Building Springfield, IL 62706 Senator Omar Aquino Chair, Senate Redistricting Committee 627 Capitol Building Springfield, IL 62706 Dear Chairs Hernandez and Aquino: Comments from Members of the Democratic party during hearings on the 2021 redistricting process lead us to believe that the majority fully plans to enact new maps for both the Legislature and U.S. House of Representatives through a process that includes Governor Pritzker signing legislation by June 30, 2021. To date, not a single House or Senate hearing has included testimony from the Governor or anyone representing his office. We request the Governor, or a high-level member of his office, testify at our only scheduled joint House-Senate hearing for Monday, April 19, 2021, 5:00 p.m. in East St. Louis. In March of 2018, then-candidate JB Pritzker said that without a constitutionally-implemented independent commission, “I would urge Democrats and Republicans to agree to an independent commission to handle creating a new legislative map”. On January 30, 2020, Governor Pritzker stated “we should have compact, contiguous districts as best we can.” Additionally, the Governor added “I am going to veto any unfair map that gets presented to me.” On January 5, 2021, the spokesperson for the Governor reiterated the position by saying the Governor “has been clear he will veto a partisan map”. Redistricting Committee, Page 2 Given the Governor’s numerous stated positions in favor of fair mapping, as well as a commission process for redistricting, it is vital that both the people of Illinois and our Committees hear directly from the Governor in a public hearing as to his views and plans for redistricting. We ask that you immediately invite and confirm the Governor’s presence at the April 19 hearing so plans can be made accordingly. Sincerely, Senator Jason Barickman Spokesman, Senate Redistricting Committee Representative Tim Butler Spokesman, House Redistricting Committee CC: Governor JB Pritzker House Speaker Emanuel “Chris” Welch Senate President Don Harmon House Minority Leader Jim Durkin Senate Minority Leader Dan McConchie.

Legislative Ratings
About the Illinois Chamber of Commerce Legislative Ratings The ratings are based on legislators’ votes on the key business legislation of the 100th General Assembly as determined by staff and the Chamber’s Government Affairs Committee. The votes in the Senate and House are selected based on their impact on the business community. None of the bills used in the report are weighted, as there were an adequate number of legislation voted on during this General Assembly. Legislators were given a positive mark (+) on their scorecard for bills in which they voted in favor with the Illinois Chamber and were given a negative mark (-) on their scorecard for bills in which they voted against the Illinois Chamber. Legislators who voted present (P), were absent (A) or took a ‘no vote’ (NV) on a bill in which the Illinois Chamber supported were also given a negative mark (-) on their scorecard. Contrary, legislators who voted present, were absent or took a ‘no vote’ on a bill in which the Illinois Chamber opposed, were not counted for or against their final rating. Legislators who were either not a member at the time of the vote (NA) or were excused from their absence (E) during the vote were not counted for or against their final score. Members who did not meet the required number of votes were not given a rating (NE). In cases where more than one roll call was taken on a bill, the vote that best demonstrates support for employers’ vital interests was chosen. If employers are to change the culture in Springfield, they must educate themselves on the record of their representatives and hold them accountable for it.

1 Political Contributions Exelon Corporation's (Exelon) Success
Political Contributions Exelon Corporation’s (Exelon) success depends on sound public policies at the national, state and local levels. Issues vital to Exelon’s ability to recognize value for its stakeholders are debated and decided in the U.S. Congress, state legislatures and local forums across the country. Federal and Pennsylvania law prohibit companies from making political contributions to Federal and Pennsylvania candidates. Illinois and Maryland law limit the amount that Exelon and its affiliated companies can give to political candidates and PACs. In certain other states, corporations are permitted to contribute to state election campaigns. Exelon engages in political activity in accordance with all relevant state and Federal laws. Exelon Corporation, Baltimore Gas and Electric Company and PECO Energy Company have established political action committees that are funded solely through voluntary employee contributions (ExelonPAC, BGEPAC and PECOPAC). Exelon Generation Company and Commonwealth Edison Company also have Illinois state political action committees which may be funded by both employee and corporate contributions (ComEd PAC and ExGenPAC). Exelon provides limited administrative support to all five PACs. These PACs offer eligible employees a direct means to voluntarily participate in shaping public policy and expressing views on issues related to our business. The PACs operate in accordance with all relevant state and Federal laws. Information about ExelonPAC is available on the website of the Federal Election Commission at www.fec.gov. In the interest of transparency for our shareholders and stakeholders, Exelon has posted its Corporate Political Contributions Guidelines on its website.
