    2017 Political Contributions (January 1 – June 30) Amgen is committed to serving patients by transforming the promise of science and biotechnology into therapies that have the power to restore health or even save lives. Amgen recognizes the importance of sound public policy in achieving this goal, and, accordingly, participates in the political process and supports those candidates, committees, and other organizations who work to advance healthcare innovation and improve patient access. Amgen participates in the political process by making direct corporate contributions as well as contributions through its employee-funded Political Action Committee (“Amgen PAC”). In some states, corporate contributions to candidates for state or local elected offices are permissible, while in other states and at the federal level, political contributions are only made through the Amgen PAC. Under certain circumstances, Amgen may lawfully contribute to other political committees and political organizations, including political party committees, industry PACs, leadership PACs, and Section 527 organizations. Amgen also participates in ballot initiatives and referenda at the state and local level. Amgen is committed to complying with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations that govern such contributions. The list below contains information about political contributions for the first half of 2017 by Amgen and the Amgen PAC.

    Fluor Corporation Corporate Political Activity January – June 2021 Fluor Corporation has adopted a Political Activities Policy to establish policies and procedures regarding the Company’s advocacy and involvement in U.S. elections. As the Policy outlines, we believe that meaningful civic engagement requires Fluor to participate in the legislative process and, where lawful and appropriate, provide corporate support to candidates or ideas. The purpose of this Political Activities Report, a semiannual requirement under the Policy, is to facilitate transparency regarding Fluor’s political activities. This report discloses all of the Company’s monetary and non-monetary contributions and expenditures (direct or indirect), including contributions by FLUORPAC, the Company’s separate segregated fund, during the semiannual period (January – June 2021) to: (i) participate or intervene in any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for public office; or (ii) influence the general public, or any segment thereof, with respect to an election or referendum. For each contribution, the report discloses the name of the recipient and the amount given. These contributions are publicly reported to governing agencies by Fluor, FLUORPAC, and/or the recipients as required by law.

We agree. In order for us to conduct a fair and nonpartisan process, we must hold ourselves to the highest standards of ethical conduct as we continue proceedings to consider the election contests before our Committee. We write to bring to your attention to a serious conflict of interest regarding Marc Elias, an attorney with the law firm Perkins Coie. In the election contests currently before us, Mr. Elias simultaneously represents Members of the Committee, the triers of fact and law, and parties to these contests, an arrangement clearly prohibited by attorney ethics rules and obligations. See Notice of Contest Regarding Election for Representative in the One Hundred Seventeenth Congress from Iowa’s Second Congressional District; Contestee’s Motion to dismiss Contestant’s Notice of Contest Regarding the Election for Representative in the 117th Congress from Illinois’ fourteenth Congressional District. Marc Elias and his firm, Perkins Coie, represent you, Representative Pete Aguilar, and Representative Mary Gay Scanlon, one-half of the Democratic Members of the House Committee on House Administration, the Committee charged with hearing election contests.
