By providing sustained funding for these critical infrastructure needs, we will help strengthen Delaware’s economy, while we improve the health of our environment. Through the leadership of Governor John Carney and the support of the Delaware General Assembly, we have focused on continuing investment in the environmental infrastructure that supports tourism, recreation, and public health and safety. By purifying air and water, mitigating fl ooding, and supporting diverse species, as well as providing recreational amenities, we generate millions of dollars in economic value. Outdoor recreation options, such as biking and walking trails, can help reduce health care costs as Delawareans adopt healthier lifestyles – and more than 60 percent of our residents now participate in outdoor recreation. Visitors come to Delaware to experience our pristine beaches, navigable waterways, rustic landscapes, world-class birding, hunting, fi shing, biking, and hiking. Clean air and water and memorable recreational experiences are vital to attracting visitors and new companies, as well as retaining businesses and their top talent.

    1 Verizon Political Activity January – December 2017 A Message from Craig Silliman 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 18 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, corporate political contributions, support for ballot initiatives and independent expenditures made by Verizon and its affiliates during 2017. 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. Craig L. Silliman Executive Vice President, Public Policy and General Counsel 2 Verizon Political Activity January – December 2017 Political Contributions Policy: Our Voice in the Democratic Process What are the Verizon Political Action Committees? including the setting of monetary contribution limitations and The Verizon Political Action Committees (PACs) exist to help the establishment of periodic reporting requirements.

The 1996 GOP platform devoted one sentence to the right to arms, and then dealt at length with the gun control measures it would push anyway: I can remember when the very best you could hope for was "We defend the constitutional right to keep and bear arms. something like "We support the Second Amendment." Heck We will promote training in the safe usage of firearms, especially George Bush Sr. resigned from the NRA and imposed import in programs for women and the elderly. We strongly support Bob bans, and even his son said that he'd sign a renewal of the "AW" Dole's National Instant Check Initiative, which will help keep all ban. But the current GOP platform is: guns out of the hands of convicted felons. The point‐of‐purchase "We uphold the right of individuals to keep and bear arms, a instant check has worked well in many states and now it is time right which antedated the Constitution and was solemnly to extend this system all across America.
