Briefing Book
UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH OFFICE OF THE CHANCELLOR and INSTITUTE OF POLITICS WELCOME YOU to the SEVENTEENTH ANNUAL ELECTED OFFICIALS RETREAT Implementing the Affordable Care Act: What State and Local Policy Makers Need to Know September 19-20, 2013 Hilton Garden Inn, Southpointe PROGRAM MATERIALS Agenda Board of Fellows and Committee Lists 2013 Policy Committee Priorities Program Criteria and Strategies Speaker Biographies Affordable Care Act Briefing Materials Evaluation Instructions If you have questions about the materials or any aspect of the program, please inquire at the registration desk. 1 Director’s Welcome Welcome to the University of Pittsburgh Office of the Chancellor and Institute of Politics’ seventeenth annual Elected Officials Retreat. I am delighted that you will be joining us for this event as we explore the implementation of the Affordable Care Act in southwestern Pennsylvania. In the course of the past year, a number of key policy issues have emerged at the state and local levels. We have not yet passed legislation to address pensions and transportation funding, two key issues that will be of critical importance during the legislative session this fall. Also among these is the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, which emerged as the most critical issue for Policy Makers and the Institute of Politics to address. This is primarily because the Act is so complex: it includes the components that one hears about in the media: employer and individual mandates, exemptions to various components of the law, the potential expansion of Medicaid, subsidies for certain categories of individuals, families and businesses, and tax changes, among other things. -

Expanding Pharmacist-Provided Immunization Opportunities House Bill 1089 and Senate Bill 626
Expanding Pharmacist-Provided Immunization Opportunities House Bill 1089 and Senate Bill 626 Ask your legislators: Ask your representatives to vote for House Bill 1089. As your senators to vote for Senate Bill 626. PPA supports expanding pharmacist-provided immunization opportunities because: Currently in Pennsylvania, there are approximately 9,500 certified pharmacist immunizers available to safely and conveniently administer vaccinations. The public's unique access to pharmacists – including extended hours of operation and weekend availability, coupled with being a trusted health care professional – places pharmacies in an ideal position to have a major impact on reducing vaccine-preventable illness. According to a 2008 article in the Journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics, “With supporting health policy, health education, and communication, health care settings beyond the traditional medical home (e.g. pharmacists) have the potential to effectively augment the vaccination efforts of more traditional settings to deliver vaccines to adolescents.” Thirteen other states have no age restrictions for pharmacists providing immunizations. Thirty-six states allow pharmacists to provide all immunizations to children of younger ages than provided in Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania State Senate: Senate Bill 626 sponsored by Senator Thomas McGarrigle (R-26th District) When discussing, keep in mind the following: If your senator is a current co-sponsor of Senate Bill 626 (listed below), be sure to thank them. If your senator is not a co-sponsor, ask them to co-sponsor and support the bill. Senate Bill 626 Co-Sponsors: Senator David Argall Senator Randy Vulakovich Senator Bob Mensch Senator Kim Ward Senator John Rafferty Senator Gene Yaw Senator Joseph Scarnatti Senator John Yudichack Senate Bill 626, was referred to the Senate Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure. -
November 7, 2018 Pennsylvania Was One of the Most Closely Watched
Keep up to date with our blog: Follow us on Twitter @BuchananGov knowingGovernmentRelations.com November 7, 2018 Pennsylvania was one of the most closely watched states in the country on Election Day. Redistricting of Congressional seats meant a shakeup was coming for the Commonwealth’s 18-member delegation. At the statewide level, the Governor and one of two U.S. Senators were on the ballot. In the state legislature, half of the 50 Senate seats (even- numbered districts) and the entire 203-seat House of Representatives were up for grabs. During the 2017-18 legislative session the Pennsylvania House of Representatives was comprised of 121 Republicans and 82 Democrats. After last night’s election, the 2018-19 legislative session will have 109 Republicans and 94 Democrats, after the Democrats picked up 11 seats. In the Pennsylvania Senate, Republicans had a majority during the 2017-18 by a margin of 34-16. Yesterday, Senate Democrats picked up 5 seats, narrowing the Republican’s majority. Next session will have 29 Republican members and 21 Democratic members. The 18-member Pennsylvania delegation had only 6 Democrats during the 115th Congress (2017-19). When new members are sworn into the 116th Congress next year, Pennsylvania’s delegation will be split, with 9 Republicans and 9 Democrats. Governor Governor Tom Wolf (D) and his running mate for Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman (D) defeated the ticket of Scott Wagner (R) and Jeff Bartos (R). Wolf received 2,799,1559 votes (57.66%), while Wagner got 1,981,027 votes (40.81%). U.S. Senate Senator Bob Casey (D) defeated Lou Barletta (R) by a margin of over half a million votes. -

Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2010 Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2010 2
VERIZON POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS JANUARY – DECEMBER 2010 Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2010 2 A Message from Tom Tauke Verizon is affected by a wide variety of government policies — from telecommunications regulation to taxation to health care and more — that have an enormous impact on the business climate in which we operate. We owe it to our shareowners, employees and customers to advocate public policies that will enable us to compete fairly and freely in the marketplace. Political contributions are one way we support the democratic electoral process and participate in the policy dialogue. Our employees have established political action committees at the federal level and in 25 states. These political action committees (PACs) allow employees to pool their resources to support candidates for office who generally support the public policies our employees advocate. This report lists all PAC contributions and corporate political contributions made by Verizon in 2010. The contribution process is overseen by the Corporate Governance and Policy Committee of our Board of Directors, which receives a comprehensive report and briefing on these activities at least annually. We intend to update this voluntary disclosure twice a year and publish it on our corporate website. We believe this transparency with respect to our political spending is in keeping with our commitment to good corporate governance and a further sign of our responsiveness to the interests of our shareowners. Thomas J. Tauke Executive Vice President Public
