Although this Voting Record does not reflect all elements considered by a lawmaker when voting or represent a complete profile of a legislator, it can be a guide in evaluating your legislator’s attitude toward small business.

  • 2020 VPAP Annual Report
    Staying Nimble FINDING NEW WAYS TO ELEVATE PUBLIC UNDERSTANDING Top of the News 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Ballot ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Letter from the Board Chair On many levels, 2020 was both historic and humbling. A global pandemic and economic crisis. Social unrest and calls for racial justice. Political extremism and democracy under siege. Any one of these topics would be enough to contend with in a normal year, but at once 2020 brought many issues into plain sight. What we learned last year is that at a time of uncertainty and upheaval, the public’s hunger for reliable news and information grows exponentially. The STAFF challenge for the Virginia Public Access Project was to meet that demand, while adapting to remote work and rethinking nearly every aspect of our operation. David M. Poole Executive Director We enhanced VaNews to add “Top of the News” for those who value a quick summary of headlines. We developed a COVID-19 dashboard to make it easy Ric Arenstein to track coronavirus cases and deaths as reported by the Virginia Department Major Gifts Officer of Health. And we modified our traditional election night coverage to account for early voting and delayed returns. Rachel Dominy Graphic Design and I am proud of the many ways, large and small, the VPAP team seized Communications Manager opportunity and adapted during such a challenging year. You will find a few of those instances outlined in this annual report. Jason Kostyk Data Developer All of this success was made possible by the encouragement and support of our nearly 1,500 donors.

Please accept this informatory letter in response to issues and questions raised in the Commission’s May 26 Order in the referenced docket. In its Order, the Commission asserted that the current moratorium on utility service disconnections for nonpayment “is not sustainable” and could result in costs being “unfairly shifted to other customers.” The Order also suggested that this moratorium could have “negative impacts on small, less-capitalized utilities and member-owned electric cooperatives,” which “could impact vital services to all customers of such utilities.” The Commission requested comment regarding whether the current moratorium should be continued, and if so, for how long.

  • 1 2020 U.S. Political Engagement Policy and Statement This U.S
    2020 U.S. Political Engagement Policy and Statement This U.S. Political Engagement Policy and Statement describes the two types of political engagement by the Company. The first is lobbying, which includes both direct communications with government officials by the Company as well as advocacy by other organizations (i.e., indirect lobbying) that receive financial support from the Company. The second is campaign contributions to candidates for elected office, political parties, political committees, and other organizations that use the contributions for campaign-related purposes. The Company’s policy is to participate in public policymaking by informing government officials about our positions on issues significant to the Company and our customers. The Company conducts this lobbying in the context of existing and proposed laws, legislation, regulations, and policy initiatives, and include, for example, commerce, intellectual property, trade, data privacy, transportation, and web services. Relatedly, the Company constructively and responsibly participates in the U.S. electoral process by making campaign contributions. The goal of the Company’s political engagement is to promote the interests of the Company and our customers, and the Company makes such decisions in accordance with the processes described in this U.S. Political Engagement Policy and Statement, without regard to the personal political preferences of the Company’s directors, officers, or employees. Click here for archives of previous statements. Review and Approval Process The Company’s Vice President of Public Policy reviews and approves each campaign contribution made with Company funds or resources to, or in support of, any candidate, political campaign, political party, political committee, or public official in any country, or to any other organization for campaign-related purposes, to ensure that it is lawful and consistent with the Company’s business objectives and public policy priorities.
