  • Nicole Galloway, CPA Missouri State Auditor
    September 8, 2020 Hon. John R. Ashcroft Missouri Secretary of State Elections Division 600 West Main Street Jefferson City, MO 65101 Re: Complaint Against Missouri State Auditor Nicole Galloway and Request for Investigation Dear Secretary Ashcroft: In accordance with Mo. Rev. Stat. § 115.642, Liberty Alliance respectfully requests that the Missouri Secretary of State commence an investigation into Missouri State Auditor Nicole Galloway. Evidence strongly suggests that Galloway used public funds as Auditor to support her candidacy for Governor, by instructing her state, taxpayer-paid staff to place an op-ed in the St. Louis Post Dispatch accusing the Governor and lawmakers of passing a pro-life bill to “protect rapists.” The pro-life bill has no relation to Galloway’s constitutional role as Auditor. Instead, Galloway used the op-ed as part of a coordinated campaign to paint the bill’s supposed “protection” of rapists as having motivated her to run for Governor. This constitutes a misuse of public funds, in violation of Mo. Rev. Stat. §115.646. Consequently, the Secretary of State should immediately investigate this violation and aid in the state's prosecution of this offense.1 I. Introduction The Secretary of State’s Office previously commenced an investigation into allegations that a statewide officeholder used public funds to aid a run for political office. On December 6, 2018, the Secretary of State’s Office commenced an investigation into a complaint brought by the American Democracy Legal Fund against former Missouri Attorney General Josh Hawley alleging that his use of political consultants to communicate with AGO staff members violated Section 115.646.

  • 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.

    Gender Parity Index 2018 Report GENDER PARITY INDEX 2018 REPRESENTWOMEN RepresentWomen A thriving democracy is within our reach, but we must level the playing field for women candidates across the racial, political, and geographic spectrum so that our nation’s rich diversity is reflected in our elected and appointed bodies. Electing more women to every level of government will strengthen our democracy by making it more representative, reviving bipartisanship and collaboration, encouraging a new style of leadership, and building greater trust in our elected bodies. The Gender Parity Index Report 2018 is an update to our State of Women’s Representation series, which documents and analyzes women’s representation in all fifty states and the U.S territories. It makes the case for structural changes that are necessary to achieve parity in our lifetimes.
