  • Newsmaker Interview: Lt. Gov. Tim Griffin on Efficiency, Transformation & Tax Cuts
    NEWSMAKER INTERVIEW: LT. GOV. TIM GRIFFIN ON EFFICIENCY, TRANSFORMATION & TAX CUTS (April 2020) A 5th generation Arkansan, Tim Griffin was raised in Magnolia and has served as Arkansas lieutenant governor since 2015.1 A fiscal conservative, Lt. Gov. Griffin spoke at the Policy Foundation's 20th anniversary event in 2015 with Gov. Asa Hutchinson. Lt. Gov. Griffin served on the Transformation Advisory Board, a 15-member citizens panel (2017-18) that emerged from the Policy Foundation's Efficiency Project (2015-16). The Board's work led to the reorganization of Arkansas state government in 2019. The Policy Foundation recently interviewed Lt. Gov. Griffin, a graduate of Hendrix College and Tulane Law School, about his work to transform Arkansas state government and make Arkansas' economy more competitive with other states. Policy Foundation: How did your background inform your public service on the Transformation Advisory Board? Lt. Gov. Griffin: I was able to draw up on my varied education and work experience, especially my work in the private sector as a small businessman, as an officer in the U.S. Army Reserve, and my experiences in the executive and legislative branches of government. Specifically, this broad experience allows me to understand government culture and how it differs from the private sector in terms of managing processes, programs, and people. That knowledge helped me identify where state government could be more efficient, provide better services to Arkansas taxpayers, and save taxpayers money. Policy Foundation: More than half of the Board members were citizen- volunteers from the private sector. What does that say about citizens' ability to make a difference in Arkansas? 1 Lt.

Lilly has a comprehensive government relations operation to have a voice in the public policymaking process at both the state and federal levels. Lilly is committed to participating in the political process as a responsible corporate citizen to help inform the U.S. debate over health care and pharmaceutical innovation. As a company that operates in a highly competitive and regulated industry, Lilly must participate in the political process to fulfill its fiduciary responsibility to its shareholders, and its overall responsibilities to its customers and its employees. Corporate Political Contribution Elected officials, no matter what level, have an impact on public policy issues affecting Lilly. We are committed to backing candidates who support public policies that contribute to pharmaceutical innovation and healthy patients. A number of factors are considered when reviewing candidates for support. The following evaluation criteria are used to allocate political contributions: • Has the candidate historically voted or announced positions on issues of importance to Lilly, such as pharmaceutical innovation and health care? • Has the candidate demonstrated leadership on key committees of importance to our business? • Does the candidate demonstrate potential for legislative leadership?

RADPAC enjoyed another record-breaking year in 2010 as a result of these contributions. In fact, RADPAC raised more hard money, more soft money and had more contributors in 2010 than in any previous year in RADPAC’s history. The spectrum of RADPAC activities, from direct campaign contributions, to imaging policy discussions at fund raisers, to hands-on education of Members of Congress at radiologists’ practice sites, provides the ability for our specialty to directly and effectively advocate our important issues to those Members of Congress who create the legislation and policies so vital to the success and preservation of our specialty and to the continued well-being of our patients. This would not be possible without the thousands of generous contributions to RADPAC from responsible, concerned radiologists. I am particularly grateful to those 73 groups that have achieved 100 percent participation of their members. Thank you all.
