CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present

CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

Federal Election Commission Washington, D.C. 20463

FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20463 BEFORE THE FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION In the Matter of ) ) MUR6538 Americans for Job Security, et al. ) STATEMENT OF REASONS OF CHAIRMAN LEE E. GOODMAN AND COMMISSIONERS CAROLINE C. HUNTER AND MATTHEW S. PETERSEN The issue before the Commission is whether Americans for Job Security ("AJS" or the "Respondent"), a business league organization established in 1997 under 26 U.S.C. § 501(c)(6), violated the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended (the "Act" or "FECA"), by failing to register and report as a "political committee."' The Commission considered these J same allegations only five years ago.^ As before,^ we believe AJS — an organization that has spent less than ten percent of its funds on express advocacy during its entire existence — is an issue-advocacy organization that cannot be regulated as a political conunittee. We therefore voted {^nst finding reason to believe AJS violated the Act. "The agency's controlling statute and court decisions stretching back nearly forty years properly tailor the applicability of campaign finance laws to protect non-profit issue advocacy groups... from burdensome political committee registration and reporting requirements."^ Such organizations cannot be classified as political committees, even if they engage in some express electoral advocacy, so long as their major purpose for existing is not to advocate for or against the nomination or election of federal candidates.^ Determining an organization's major purpose requires a comprehensive, case-specific inquiry that focuses on the organization's public statements, organizational documents, and overall spending history.^ ' See generally MUR 6538 (AJS), Complaint.
Learn Which Candidates We Supported in Your Community PFIZER PAC ~ OUR VOICE in the POLITICAL PROCESS a Message from Rich Bagger, Chairman Pfizer PAC

PFIZER PAC & CORPORATE POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS REPORT 2005 – 2006 CYCLE Learn which candidates we supported in your community PFIZER PAC ~ OUR VOICE IN THE POLITICAL PROCESS A Message From Rich Bagger, Chairman Pfizer PAC Dear Colleagues: One of our five immediate priorities at Pfizer is to engage more actively and meaningfully with patients, doctors, payers, governments and other key stakeholders. We’re reaching out to these important groups and working harder to meet their needs. We're also working harder to engage all stakeholders in the dialogue on health policy and actively participate in the discussion over how to improve the quality of healthcare, access to medicines, and incentives for innovation. Pfizer PAC is one of the key ways in which we engage with candidates for public office. Through Pfizer PAC, we support candidates who understand the importance of innovative life sciences companies like Pfizer in fighting disease, improving health outcomes, and ensuring access to vital medicines. This report includes a list of candidates and political committees that Pfizer PAC supported during the 2005-06 election cycle. I hope you will take some time to review this report and see which candidates Pfizer PAC supported in your region. This was a successful year for Pfizer PAC. In the past election cycle, Pfizer PAC supported more than 2,277 candidates from both political parties, and at all levels of government. You, and Pfizer colleagues across America, definitely made a difference this past year through Pfizer PAC, by supporting candidates for public office who value access and innovation in healthcare. Thank you for your support—this report explains how Pfizer PAC put your generous contributions to use.
