As a show of gratitude to our dedicated contributors, this report lists all of the individuals and companies who have been a part of our 2017–2018 campaign. In addition, you’ll find detailed information about the goals our political programs have been able to achieve thus far and a comprehensive summary of the legislative and political priorities MBA’s advocacy team has been working to achieve at this point. In 2017 alone, MORPAC raised over $933,000 in individual donations getting us closer to our two-year cycle goal of $2.25 million by end of 2018. MORPAC is funded entirely through voluntary contributions from people like you. Every MORPAC contributor has joined a team of dedicated industry professionals that drive and support the real estate finance industry. While MORPAC is an essential advocacy tool that supports the election and re-election of federal candidates who have an understanding of the real estate finance industry, the Mortgage Action Alliance (MAA) is our best way to educate policymakers at the federal and state level on issues that impact our members. Under the leadership of MAA Chairman Gene Lugat, MAA grew by 50% in 2017 to over 23,000 active members and counting. We had more than 1,900 downloads of the new MAA mobile app within five months of launch and saw a 218% increase in communications to Congress. In fact, our advocates sent over 30,000 letters to 98% of Senate offices and 94% of House offices on key issues throughout the year. With our industry undergoing rapid growth and change driven by the legislative and regulatory environment, it’s up to us to make our voices heard in the political arena. I hope you will take time to review the report and continue to stay involved with MBA’s Advocacy Programs and fight for our industry. Many thanks for your leadership and commitment to MORPAC, our industry, and our members. Sincerely, Rick Arvielo CEO, New American Funding 2017–2018 MORPAC Chairman MORPAC 2017 YEAR-END REPORT PAGE 3 MORPAC FUNDRAISING METRICS Since January 2017, MORPAC has raised over $1.1 million IN PERSONAL CONTRIBUTIONS SO FAR IN THE 2017–2018 CYCLE.

Let’s Get To Work The last few months have been a breakthrough span of time for this union. We’ve enjoyed a series of important victories, reached several critical milestones, and continued our efforts to revitalize our members’ faith in TWU. I can hear, see, and feel the difference when I interact with you: when I read your emails, visit your locals, or attend your events. In the last several months, I joined Local 234, my old local, as they opened up negotiations with SEPTA in Philadelphia. I attended Local 291’s annual picnic in Florida. And of course, I was in Dallas as we negotiated with American Airlines to get our Air Division members at American the industry-leading wages they deserve. Today, I recognize a sense of pride in this union that I hadn’t seen in many years. I see you wearing your TWU buttons and t-shirts, and interacting with our posts and one another on social media. I see you sharing our content with your friends and families and calling your local and International officers to see how you can get involved. I see you signing up—literally, by the thousands—to get involved in our unity campaign at American Airlines, or to volunteer with get-out- the-vote efforts. I see a renewed commitment to the value that this “This momentum union provides all of us, and our families, and an appreciation for the solidarity we’ve shown our brothers and sisters over the last several years as we’ve rebuilt TWU together.

Mr. Kihuen is a candidate for the Democratic party nomination in congressional district 4 in Nevada. (Federal Elections Commission Identification # 4 C00502773). 1 go through each of the apparent violations below. April 25. 2015 Fundraiisiing event On April 25, 2015, Mr. Kihuen held fundraiser at Tacos & Beer restaurant (a Nevada Limited Liability Corporation, see attachment 1). Mr. Kihuen sent out a number of tweets about the upcoming event, and posted information on Facebook. (See Attachment 2). Facebook photos show food, drinks, cake and even a waiter apparently circulating hore d'oeuvres. (See Attachment 3). It appears, that the event takes place in a separate room, possibly one that Tacos and Beer rents out. (Attachment 3). Later on Facebook and Twitter, Mr. Kihuen bragged that "200+ people showed up on a rainy night to support our campaign..." (See Attachment. 3). Despite the fact that such a lavish event was held at a nice restaurant/bar, no expenses or in-kind contributions are recorded on Mr. Kihuen's campaign fmance report in relation to this event. And an event such as this certainly was staffed. According to his campaign finance reports, he has not paid any money to staff. I go into more detail below about the mystery regarding how Mr.

  • PRIME-ARY PERSPECTIVE: MAINE, NEVADA, NORTH DAKOTA, SOUTH CAROLINA, and VIRGINIA
    PRIME-ARY PERSPECTIVE: MAINE, NEVADA, NORTH DAKOTA, SOUTH CAROLINA, and VIRGINIA PRIME-ARY Perspectives is a series that will give you an overview of the most noteworthy results from each state's primary election, focusing on congressional districts that are likely to be most competitive in November, as well as those that will have new representation in 2019 because of retirements. As always, please do not hesitate to reach out to us with questions! MAINE Yesterday, Maine became the first state in the country to use a "ranked- choice" voting system. The system allows for voters to rank the candidates from favorite to least favorite. If one candidate gets 50% + 1 vote, everything proceeds as usual; if not, vote counters gradually eliminate candidates with fewer votes. As candidates are eliminated, each vote they received goes to the whomever the individual voter chose as their next favorite candidate. This process goes on until there are two candidates and whichever one has the most votes is declared the winner. This process has earned the voting system the alternate moniker of the "instant-runoff" system. The state's deeply unpopular governor, Paul LePage (R), has threatened to refuse to certify the primary results, calling the new system "the most horrific thing in the world." This year, Maine will hold elections for all of its statewide races, one Senate seat, and its 2 seats in the House of Representatives. GUBERNATORIAL Gov. Paul LePage won reelection in 2014, at least partially because an independent candidate won 8.4% of the vote. This election is one of the reasons that the state transitioned to its ranked-voting (as described above).
