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 20 states.

This report lists all PAC contributions, corporate political contributions, support for ballot initiatives and independent expenditures made by Verizon in 2012. 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.

  • Michigan Senate Leader's Plan to Overhaul Mental Health System Worries Advocates Craig Mauger the Detroit News Published 11:33 P.M
    Plan to overhaul Michigan's mental health system worries advocates https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/politics/2021/05/09/plan-overha... POLITICS Michigan Senate leader's plan to overhaul mental health system worries advocates Craig Mauger The Detroit News Published 11:33 p.m. ET May 9, 2021 Lansing — Michigan Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey has been crafting a proposal to reshape the state's $3 billion mental health system, shifting the management of care for hundreds of thousands of residents from a publicly run program to private insurance plans. The legislation, which is yet to be formally introduced, would affect individuals on Medicaid with severe mental illness, substance use disorders and developmental disabilities. The Clarklake Republican was initially hoping for quick movement on the legislation, according to an internal document about the proposal that's labeled "confidential" and has been shared with stakeholders. The stakes are high with an overhaul changing the system that provides mental health care to more than 300,000 residents. The fight over the change is expected to be fierce. Advocates who work on behalf of those with mental illness, like Kevin Fischer, said they're concerned the overhaul would put profits ahead of what's in the best interest of a vulnerable population. Fischer's son, Dominique, was diagnosed with a serious mental illness at age 20. Three years later, Dominique committed suicide. "This quite frankly is a money grab. It’s a money grab by the health plans," said Fischer, executive director of the National Alliance on Mental Illness's Michigan organization.

  • Pfizer Inc. Regarding Congruency of Political Contributions on Behalf of Tara Health Foundation
    SANFORD J. LEWIS, ATTORNEY January 28, 2021 Via electronic mail Office of Chief Counsel Division of Corporation Finance U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission 100 F Street, N.E. Washington, D.C. 20549 Re: Shareholder Proposal to Pfizer Inc. Regarding congruency of political contributions on Behalf of Tara Health Foundation Ladies and Gentlemen: Tara Health Foundation (the “Proponent”) is beneficial owner of common stock of Pfizer Inc. (the “Company”) and has submitted a shareholder proposal (the “Proposal”) to the Company. I have been asked by the Proponent to respond to the supplemental letter dated January 25, 2021 ("Supplemental Letter") sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission by Margaret M. Madden. A copy of this response letter is being emailed concurrently to Margaret M. Madden. The Company continues to assert that the proposal is substantially implemented. In essence, the Company’s original and supplemental letters imply that under the substantial implementation doctrine as the company understands it, shareholders are not entitled to make the request of this proposal for an annual examination of congruency, but that a simple written acknowledgment that Pfizer contributions will sometimes conflict with company values is all on this topic that investors are entitled to request through a shareholder proposal. The Supplemental letter makes much of the claim that the proposal does not seek reporting on “instances of incongruency” but rather on how Pfizer’s political and electioneering expenditures aligned during the preceding year against publicly stated company values and policies.” While the company has provided a blanket disclaimer of why its contributions may sometimes be incongruent, the proposal calls for an annual assessment of congruency.

  • For the 101St Michigan Legislature
    FOR THE 101ST MICHIGAN LEGISLATURE DECEMBER 2020 About MSU’s Legislative Leadership Program MSU’s Legislative Leadership Program invites new members of Michigan’s House of Representatives and Michigan Senate to engage in interactive sessions with content experts, including university faculty and practitioners, in the brief time between election and their first legislative sessions. At its 1994 inception, LLP was designed to create a forum and the resources to help newly elected legislators meet the challenges of serving in a state with term limits. The program was meant to help legislators forge links to university policy resources. Since that time, LLP has evolved into a broadened opportunity to gain insights into concepts that affect statewide constituencies, into evidence-based information on emerging issues and into the art and science of governing in divided times, such as under state House co-speakerships. At the same time, IPPSR has evolved as a hub for policy expertise, information and outreach, a center for survey research training and excellence, and an opportunity for training for those who seek leadership through elected office or public service. The program is built upon a series of specially designed events, including presenters, researchers and facilitated discussions. Sessions are focused on topics of compelling interest, from the state’s revenue stream, to its expenditures, K-12 education, demographics and innovations. IPPSR is proud that LLP has hosted a majority of newly elected legislators from each party and draws support from the Legislature’s highest officers. The program continues to build on MSU's long-standing tradition of providing leadership training to state and county officials, community leaders, and aspiring public officials.
