Metlife, Inc. 2020 Political Activities Report MetLife, Inc. 2020 Political Activities Report MetLife, Inc. (together with its affiliates, MetLife or the Company) believes that its participation in the political process is an important and essential means of achieving its goals of enhancing shareholder value and of providing people with the financial and insurance products and services they need through various life stages and economic cycles. Legislative and regulatory initiatives and priorities at the United States federal and state levels, including appropriate regulation of the financial and insurance industries, have a profound impact on MetLife and its businesses’ ability to achieve these goals. MetLife engages with policymakers on a wide range of public policy matters to advance the issues of importance to its shareholders and policyholders. The Company participates in the political process through a variety of means, including several political action committees (PACs) and, where permissible, limited direct corporate political contributions to state candidates, committees or ballot issues. MetLife maintains appropriate policies and procedures and ensures that its political activities are conducted in accordance with all applicable laws governing political contributions and lobbying activities. MetLife solicits contributions to the MetLife PACs only from associates who are eligible to participate under the terms of the PAC and applicable law. Contributions to MetLife PACs are voluntary; MetLife does not favor or disfavor associates on the basis of their participation. Senior management reviews and approves decisions regarding all corporate political contributions, including in‐kind contributions, pursuant to the Company’s policy. MetLife, Inc.’s Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee (the Committee) reviews MetLife’s goals and strategies concerning legislative and regulatory initiatives that impact the interests of the Company. The Committee also receives and reviews MetLife’s annual Political Activities Report, which describes the Company’s political contributions. This report describes MetLife PACs’ political contributions, the portion of MetLife’s annual payments to trade associations and other tax-exempt organizations allocated to lobbying activities (where the total annual payments to such association or organization exceeded $50,000), and MetLife’s contributions to political candidates or committees.

We urge you to protect this deduction—a unique and cherished incentive for Americans to invest directly in important community needs. The nonprofit sector plays a central role in the social and economic vitality of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Our organizations educate and keep the citizenry healthy; care for the most vulnerable populations; and preserve the state’s cherished historical, cultural and environmental resources. Nonprofits employ 16.7% of the workforce, or nearly 500,000 Massachusetts residents, and are responsible for $250 billion in annual revenues. Congress codified the strong American tradition of giving back to our communities in the tax code nearly a century ago, when it provided for deductions on charitable contributions in the Revenue Act of 1917.

  • 117Th Illinois Congressional Delegation
    ILLINOIS CONGRESSIONAL DELEGATION 117th Congress Two Senators represent each state in the U.S. Senate and are elected to serve six-year terms. U.S. Senator Dick Durbin (D) of Springfield was elected to represent Illinois for a fifth term in 2020. Tammy Duckworth of Hoffman Estates (D) was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2016. (See pages 16-19 for U.S. Senator photos and biographies.) In the November 2020 general election, Illinois voters elected 18 candidates to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives for two-year terms. Thirteen Democratic and five Republican U.S. Representatives were elected to serve in the 117th Congress. The November 2020 general election was historical, with the most women ever elect- ed to serve in Congress. Democrat Marie Newman and Republican Mary Miller — repre- senting districts that were previously held by men — added to the increase of female Representatives. Newman definitively won the general election to represent the 13th District after defeating 16-year incumbent U.S. Rep. Dan Lipinksi (D) in the March pri- mary. Miller won the 15th District seat that was previously held by U.S. Rep. John Shimkus (R), who served 12 terms in Congress and opted not to run for reelection. Since 1818, Illinois has had a total of 20 female U.S. Representatives. In 2021, seven are currently rep- resenting our state — a record-breaking total. The 117th Congress serves from Jan. 3, 2021, to Jan. 3, 2023. A view of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. 36 | 2021-2022 ILLINOIS BLUE BOOK 1st Congressional District BOBBY L.

  • Committee Tax” How the Parties Pressured Legislative Leaders to Raise Huge Sums of Campaign Cash During the 116Th Congress — and Are Poised to Do So Again This Year
    New Congress, Same “Committee Tax” How the parties pressured legislative leaders to raise huge sums of campaign cash during the 116th Congress — and are poised to do so again this year By Amisa Ratliff One of the open secrets of Washington is that both the Democratic and Republican parties strong-arm influential legislators to raise astronomical amounts of campaign cash. Referred to as paying “party dues,” lawmakers are pressured to transfer huge sums from their campaigns and affiliated PACs to the parties as well as spend countless hours “dialing for dollars” to raise six- and seven-figure amounts for the parties, often by soliciting corporations, labor unions, and other special interests that have business before Congress. These fundraising demands have morphed into a “committee tax” levied Approximately $1 of by the political parties onto legislators. The more influential the role in every $5 spent during Congress, the more money party leaders expect legislators to raise, with the last election cycle by committee chairs being expected to raise more funds than other members several top Democratic of their caucus. This is especially true for the chairs of the most powerful and Republican committees in the U.S. House of Representatives — the Appropriations, lawmakers were simply Energy and Commerce, Financial Services, and Ways and Means Committees, transfers to the DCCC which are sometimes referred to as “A” committees for their prestige and and NRCC. influence. In fact, according to a new analysis of campaign finance filings by Issue One, approximately $1 of every $5 spent during the 2019-2020 election cycle by several of the top Democratic and Republican lawmakers on these exclusive “A” committees were simply transfers to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) and National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC).
