  • FACT SHEET Oppose State Takeover of NEPA Analysis
    FACT SHEET Oppose State Takeover of NEPA Analysis WHY NEPA IS IMPORTANT The National Environmental Policy Act, signed into law by President Nixon, was our country’s first major law establishing national environmental priorities. It was also landmark legislation regarding public transparency and accountability. Today, we take for granted that the public has a right to participate in federal decision-making processes, but in fact it was NEPA that first established this right. Implementation of NEPA on our federal lands triggers numerous other important federal laws, such as those requiring multiple-use management, historic preservation laws, endangered species protection, the Freedom of Information Act and more. NEPA requires that the federal government evaluate the environmental impacts of their proposed actions, and inform and engage the public in these assessments and decisions. The NEPA process is complex - balancing many competing and sometimes conflicting national and local priorities. REASONS TO OPPOSE STATE TAKEOVER OF NEPA: ● Our national public lands belong to all Americans. The state of Wyoming is ill-suited to ​ ​ objectively evaluate and balance the many national interests for these lands. We need the national outlook in the NEPA process to protect these lands from short-sighted exploitation. Wyoming citizens have repeatedly shown they do not support transfer of ownership or management of these lands to the state. ● The proposal is not legal. There is no such thing as state “primacy” for NEPA. We would need to ​ see Congress change many laws to forward this effort. The legislature has far more important and pragmatic issues to focus on. ● The state has no experience managing lands for multiple use.

  • Pfizer Inc. Regarding Congruency of Political Contributions on Behalf of Tara Health Foundation
    SANFORD J. LEWIS, ATTORNEY January 28, 2021 Via electronic mail Office of Chief Counsel Division of Corporation Finance U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission 100 F Street, N.E. Washington, D.C. 20549 Re: Shareholder Proposal to Pfizer Inc. Regarding congruency of political contributions on Behalf of Tara Health Foundation Ladies and Gentlemen: Tara Health Foundation (the “Proponent”) is beneficial owner of common stock of Pfizer Inc. (the “Company”) and has submitted a shareholder proposal (the “Proposal”) to the Company. I have been asked by the Proponent to respond to the supplemental letter dated January 25, 2021 ("Supplemental Letter") sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission by Margaret M. Madden. A copy of this response letter is being emailed concurrently to Margaret M. Madden. The Company continues to assert that the proposal is substantially implemented. In essence, the Company’s original and supplemental letters imply that under the substantial implementation doctrine as the company understands it, shareholders are not entitled to make the request of this proposal for an annual examination of congruency, but that a simple written acknowledgment that Pfizer contributions will sometimes conflict with company values is all on this topic that investors are entitled to request through a shareholder proposal. The Supplemental letter makes much of the claim that the proposal does not seek reporting on “instances of incongruency” but rather on how Pfizer’s political and electioneering expenditures aligned during the preceding year against publicly stated company values and policies.” While the company has provided a blanket disclaimer of why its contributions may sometimes be incongruent, the proposal calls for an annual assessment of congruency.
