  • 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.

  • Delaware Republicans Losing House Seat
    For release… Tuesday, Oct. 5, 2010… 4 pages Contacts: Peter Woolley 973.670.3239; Dan Cassino 973.896.7072 Delaware Republicans Losing House Seat Likely voters in Delaware split 45%-40% on whether they prefer to have the U.S. Congress controlled by the Democratic Party or the Republican Party, suggesting that the First State’s open congressional seat might be hotly contested. But according to the most recent poll by Fairleigh Dickinson University’s PublicMind, Democrat and former Lt. Gov. John Carney is leading Republican Glen Urquhart by 51%-36% for the House seat soon to be vacated by Republican Mike Castle. “Reputation and name brand matter,” said Peter Woolley, professor of political science at Fairleigh Dickinson University and director of the poll, “and it matters a little more in Delaware than in most states,” he said. While Carney predictably leads comfortably in New Castle County (56-32), he runs even with Urquhart (43-43) in the more Republican counties of Kent and Sussex. “The idea of wanting a change in party control in Washington doesn’t line up neatly with preferences in each congressional district,” said Woolley. “Candidates matter, not just parties.” But it is Beau Biden who wins the popularity contest in the state promoted as the Small Wonder, with 61% of likely voters offering a favorable opinion of him against 23% with an unfavorable opinion. Biden’s only opponent for attorney general, independent Doug Campbell, is unknown by 81% of voters and another 12% have no opinion of him. Biden leads Campbell 65%-25%. In the race for state treasurer, Democrat Chip Flowers and Republican Colin Bonini are neck and neck at 38%-38%, with 21% unsure.

We request that you protect our way of life and ensure our industries' futures by opposing these proposals. As you know, our historic industries, drawing from both the Atlantic coast and the Chesapeake Bay, contribute hundreds of millions of dollars to our region’s economy each year and support thousands of jobs; from charter boat captains and tackle shops, to commercial fishermen, processors, retailers and restaurateurs. Recreational anglers spent $3.7 billion across the mid-Atlantic in 2011, and commercial fishing brought in $263.5 million in revenue across our three states in 2014. Our industries not only support the mid-Atlantic through these economic benefits, but as institutions that help define our region’s proud culture and history. Please also consider the following: In 2014 in Virginia, shellfish growers sold $55.9 million in oysters and clams, showing an increase of 14% total revenue for clam growers and 33% for oyster growers.

  • 2012 State Election Preview
    2012 State Election Preview The November 6, 2012 election is expected to bring unprecedented change to the makeup of the state legislatures. Not only will over 81 percent of the nation’s state legislative seats be up for grabs, but the once-in-a-decade convergence of term limits and redistricting changes is likely to produce unusually high levels of turnover. The election also comes on the heels of the 2010 midterm elections, which resulted in a turnover of almost 24 percent of lawmakers, and having two high-turnover cycles back to back makes it possible that the number of seats changing hands in 2012 will break records.1 These changes also make it likely that at the start of the 2013 legislative sessions, approximately half of all state legislators will have served for two years or less.2 The state-level elections could also feel a strong impact from the closely-contested race for the White House. Polling currently gives Democratic President Barack Obama a +1.2 advantage over his opponent, Republican Governor Mitt Romney, but by all accounts the race remains too close to predict.3 The Impact of Term Limits Term limit restrictions will affect the 14 states that have adopted term limits and that hold legislative elections during even numbered years: Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Maine, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, Ohio, Oklahoma and South Dakota. Louisiana also has term limits but does not have a general election for their legislature in 2012. Altogether, 248 current state legislators will have to leave office after the November elections because of term limits.

  • Jack Markell Devoted Son of Delaware, You Were Born and Raised In
    Jack Markell Devoted son of Delaware, you were born and raised in Newark, the son of respected University of Delaware accounting professor William Markell and social worker Leni Markell. After graduating from local public schools, you went to Brown University in Rhode Island, where you earned a bachelor’s degree in economics and development studies. You then attended the University of Chicago, from which you received an MBA. You began your career as a banker at First Chicago Corporation. In the early 1990s, you became vice president for corporate development at a nascent wireless technology company, now known as Nextel, a name that you coined. As one of the company’s first executives, you helped lead Nextel to nationwide success. You also served in a senior management position at Comcast Corporation. Your career was proceeding admirably, but there were other ways you wanted to contribute to our world. And for that, you returned to your home state of Delaware and began a career in public service. Prudent yet pioneering financial leader, you were elected state treasurer of Delaware in 1998 and were reelected to two more terms. Your tenure was marked by innovative programs aimed at cutting spending and encouraging judicious use of public monies. You developed financial literacy initiatives to educate Delaware citizens about personal financial management. You created the Delaware Money School, which later expanded into the nonprofit Delaware Financial Literacy Institute. More than 15 years later, the DFLI continues to offer free classes in personal finance to Delawareans and to advise entrepreneurs through the Center for Business Growth.
