  • 2017 Political Contributions (January 1 – June 30)
    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. It includes contributions to candidate committees, political party committees, industry PACs, leadership PACs, Section 527 organizations, and state and local ballot initiatives and referenda. These contributions are categorized by state, political party (if applicable), political office (where applicable), recipient, contributor (Amgen Inc. or Amgen PAC) and amount.

  • The Women Who Lead the San Gabriel Valley Support Mike Eng for State
    The women who lead the San Gabriel Valley support Mike Eng for State Senate EL MONTE, CA — There are two candidates for State Senate in our district, a man and a woman. But only Mike Eng is endorsed by California NOW Pac, the California Democratic Party and our Democratic leaders. Why are women uniting for Mike when he is running against a woman? Because Mike Eng is the only candidate with a proven record on the issues we care about most: • Mike fought to strengthen and renew the Violence Against Women Act, and co-authored Senate Joint Resolution 20 to demand the continuation of support for victims and awareness of Domestic Violence. • Mike worked to increase prevention efforts and legal protections for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking. • Mike has the courage to stand up to Donald Trump and expand access to affordable health care in California. He’s supported by the United Nurses Associations of California, SEIU Nurses 121RN and the California Nurses Association. • Mike — a college teacher and former community college board vice- president — is an effective champion for education and affordable college for all. “Mike Eng has proven that he stands up for school funding, access to healthcare for all, increased childcare and early education, and equality for women.” -Kolieka Seigle, President of California National Organization for Women The women who lead our community unite for Mike Eng for Senate: Congressmember Judy Chu Congressmember Grace Napolitano State Senator Connie Leyva County Supervisor Hilda Solis Congressmember

  • November 29, 2020 the Honorable Joseph R. Biden, Jr. President-Elect
    November 29, 2020 The Honorable Joseph R. Biden, Jr. President-Elect of the United States Biden-Harris Transition Washington, DC 20500 Dear President-Elect Biden: As members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, we wish to commend you on your efforts to ensure that your Cabinet reflects the diversity of our nation. Your recent nomination of Alejandro Mayorkas, the first Latino and first immigrant to be nominated for the position of Secretary of Homeland Security, reflects your commitment to these efforts. This is a good start in ensuring that Latinos, the largest minority group in the United States, are more fairly represented in our nation’s government. According to the Pew Research Center, Latinos constitute 18 percent of the U.S. population and the diversity of the Latino population in itself is incredibly varied, with Mexican-Americans making up 62.3 percent of the total Latino population. As you continue to finalize your nominees, we write to restate our strong support for the first Democratic Hispanic woman elected state governor in U.S. history, Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham, as Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. For more than 30 years, Governor Lujan Grisham has worked tirelessly to improve health care access and quality for New Mexicans and all Americans. The governor’s extensive record in public service and public health is a national model for leadership. Early in her career, Governor Lujan Grisham served as the New Mexico Secretary of Health and helped to expand school- based health centers and oversaw an increase in childhood vaccination rates. As a member of Congress, she spearheaded policy development to improve the health and livelihoods of American families, with a particular focus on health equity.

  • Dear Colleague Letter
    February 9, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Speaker of the House United States Capitol Washington, DC 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader McCarthy: As you proceed in preparing an additional economic relief package which Americans desperately need, we ask that you extend and enhance the Mixed Earner Unemployment Compensation (MEUC) program. The MEUC has provided a vital lifeline for millions of “mixed earners” who were disadvantaged by an unintended loophole in the CARES Act passed in March 2020, and as Congress prepares to act again, there is a continued need to assist this population. As you know, mixed earners are those who primarily earn income as a 1099 independent contractor, but who also earn a smaller amount of traditional W-2 income. For this group, by earning W-2 income they become ineligible for the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) program, but their relatively low level of W-2 income meant they often qualified for extremely small weekly benefits. We are deeply grateful that in December, Congress took an important step to assist mixed earners. By creating the Mixed Earner Unemployment Compensation program (Sec. 1601), Congress extended important aid to millions of mixed earners. The MEUC provides a flat $100 weekly benefit for mixed earners with at least $5000 in 1099 income. In combination with the FPUC (Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation) payment of $300 weekly, this benefit has helped unemployed mixed earners stay afloat, pay their rent or mortgage, and put food on the table. It’s a testament to the need for this program that even though Congress made state participation voluntary, only two states have declined to participate.

  • April 10, 2020 the Honorable Nancy Pelosi the Honorable Kevin Mccarthy Speaker Minority Leader U.S
    April 10, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives H-232, The Capitol Building H-204, The Capitol Building Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Minority Leader McCarthy, Thank you for your leadership and dedication to addressing the public health and economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. As we prepare a fourth package to mitigate the vast impact of this crisis and ensure critical resources for Americans on the frontlines, we write to recognize the impact of COVID-19 on community health centers (CHCs) and ask for the inclusion of $7.6 billion in emergency supplemental funding for CHCs in any next COVID-19 relief package. This critical funding for CHCs is essential to meeting the urgent health care needs of underserved communities across our nation. CHCs serve over 29 million patients in all 50 states across nearly 12,000 medically underserved rural and urban communities. We appreciate that the CARES Act provided $1.32 billion in supplemental funding for CHCs and that CHCs are eligible to apply for funding under the CARES Act’s Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund. However, we are deeply concerned that these funds are insufficient to address the current and growing needs of CHCs across America as COVID-19 continues to spread exponentially every day. As you know, health care providers are facing an unprecedented crisis as the nation’s COVID-19 caseload surges to over 350,000 patients, and CHCs are on the front lines of this fight, especially in our nation’s most underserved and vulnerable communities.
