2015-2016 Election Report Political Action Committee Political Action Committee A Message from the AGC PAC Co-Chairs GC PAC is the nonpartisan political action committee (PAC) sponsored by AGC of America. It is registered with the U.S. Federal Election ACommission and allows eligible employees of AGC member companies to pool personal, voluntary financial contributions. The contributions are used to support candidates running for elective office who, regardless of party affiliation, understand the construction industry and the specific needs, interests and concerns of AGC member companies and their employees. Chuck Greco During the 2015-2016 election cycle, AGC PAC raised just shy of Linbeck Group LLC $1 million and contributed $943,750 to 212 federal candidates and AGC PAC Co-Chair committees. Of the 202 AGC PAC-backed candidates running on Election Day, 95 percent of them were successfully elected to the 115th Congress! AGC PAC’s ongoing tenacity and resolve in the political arena have made it one of the most recognized and well-respected PACs on Capitol Hill, ranking among the top 100 trade association PACs in the nation — earning it the “Heavy Hitter” status from the Center for Responsive Politics.

With limited resources, AGC PAC must prioritize its disbursements to those entities most supportive of AGC’s legislative priorities. The AGC PAC Board of Trustees, a group which includes 18 individuals from AGC member companies, a chapter executive representative, and the PAC Treasurer, reviews such requests and approves the contributions for disbursement. Trustees use the following evaluation criteria: • Local chapter and member input • Understanding or connection to the construction industry • AGC current and lifetime congressional voting record • Candidate questionnaire and interview (if a first-time candidate) • Legislative strategy • Variable election factors such as demographic profile of the district, fundraising ability, polling data and previous election results • Chapter and individual member support for AGC PAC AGC PAC may contribute up to $5,000 per election (primary, general, or run-off) to a federal candidate’s campaign. It may also contribute up to $5,000 per year to a federal PAC, or up to $15,000 to a national party committee. Contribution amounts vary depending upon the aforementioned criteria. 2 AGC PAC Financial Summary Primary 2015General 2016 Total District EndorsedCandidate Candidate Party Incumb.

    1605026 NY Spotlight Memo

    ! MEMORANDUM TO: Interested Parties FROM: Alixandria Lapp, Executive Director, House Majority PAC DATE: May 26, 2016 RE: Congressional Democrats Poised for Pick-Ups Across the Empire State With just over a month until New York’s June 28 congressional primaries, and just under six months from the November general election, Democrats are poised for significant pick-ups in congressional districts across the Empire State. This year Democrats are overwhelmingly on offense in New York – with at least six Republican held seats that could be flipped this November. Multiple Republican incumbents and challengers are finding their already-precarious political prospects diminishing even further as they struggle with a damaging party brand, a toxic presidential ticket-mate, and increasingly prove themselves out of touch with their own districts. Bottom line: With New York’s congressional Republicans increasingly vulnerable heading into the fall, Democrats are overwhelmingly on offense and well-positioned to win key districts across the state in 2016. New York Republicans Tied to Toxic Brand As in any presidential year, down-ballot races will be heavily shaped by the top of the ticket. For Republicans, particularly in New York, that’s bad news. Even before the GOP presidential race took shape, New York’s congressional Republicans faced significant structural political challenges. In six competitive Republican-held districts, President Obama either won or came within 1% of winning in 2008 and 2012. Now with Donald Trump as their presidential ticket-mate, down-ballot prospects for New York Republicans are far worse. Earlier this month, a poll by Morning Consult found that nearly half of all Americans would “be less likely to support candidates for public office if they say they back Donald Trump.” And despite Donald Trump’s big win in New York’s presidential primary, there’s no indication that it will translate to success in November.

    The History of Redistricting in Georgia

    GEORGIA LAW REVIEW(DO NOT DELETE) 11/6/2018 8:33 PM THE HISTORY OF REDISTRICTING IN GEORGIA Charles S. Bullock III* In his memoirs, Chief Justice Earl Warren singled out the redistricting cases as the most significant decisions of his tenure on the Court.1 A review of the changes redistricting introduced in Georgia supports Warren’s assessment. Not only have the obligations to equalize populations across districts and to do so in a racially fair manner transformed the makeup of the state’s collegial bodies, Georgia has provided the setting for multiple cases that have defined the requirements to be met when designing districts. Other than the very first adjustments that occurred in the 1960s, changes in Georgia plans had to secure approval from the federal government pursuant to the Voting Rights Act. Also, the first four decades of the Redistricting Revolution occurred with a Democratic legislature and governor in place. Not surprisingly, the partisans in control of redistricting sought to protect their own and as that became difficult they employed more extreme measures. When in the minority, Republicans had no chance to enact plans on their own. Beginning in the 1980s and peaking a decade later, Republicans joined forces with black Democrats to devise alternatives to the proposals of white Democrats. The biracial, bipartisan coalition never had sufficient numbers to enact its ideas. After striking out in the legislature, African-Americans appealed to the U.S. Attorney General alleging that the plans enacted were less favorable to black interests than alternatives * Charles S. Bullock, III is a University Professor of Public and International Affairs at the University of Georgia where he holds the Richard B.

    FRC ACTION VOTE SCORECARD 114TH CONGRESS / First Session Available at FRCAction.org/scorecard U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate Dear Voter and Friend of the Family, FRC Action presents our Vote Scorecard for the First Session of the 114th Congress. This online Scorecard contains a compilation of significant votes on federal legislation affecting faith, family, and freedom that FRC Action either supported or opposed. These recorded votes span the 2015 calendar year and include the greatest number of pro-life votes in history, after the U.S. House increased its Republican membership and the U.S. Senate was returned to Republican control. The year began with a bipartisan effort in the House to prohibit federal funds from being used to pay for abortion coverage under Obamacare. Congress successfully fought to restrict FDA approval of some forms of embryo-destructive research. The House, once again, passed legislation that would prevent late abortions on 5 month old pain-capable unborn children, and although the Senate was unable to pass the bill due to the 60 vote threshold, for the first time, a majority of Senators voted in favor of the bill. The public release of videos revealing Planned Parenthood’s organ harvesting practices renewed efforts to defund this scandal-ridden organization and redirect funding towards community health centers. In an unprecedented victory, the House and Senate passed a budget reconciliation bill, the Restoring Ameri- cans’ Healthcare Freedom Reconciliation Act, which would have eliminated a significant portion of Planned Parenthood’s funding—roughly 80%— and repealed key provisions of Obamacare.

Commission Vice-Chairman Lauren “Bubba” McDonald, Jr. said, “We were pleased with the reception afforded us by members of Georgia’s Congressional Delegation and will continue working with them through the legislative process.” Among the several key areas of concern brought to the Delegation’s attention: Allocations: Restricting, limiting and auctioning of allocations will increase rates to ratepayers. Delaying the phase out of allocations and beginning the auctions at a later date will give technologies time to develop to meet these requirements, mitigating impacts to customers. Dates and Caps: Requirements in the bill do not match with the timing for development of new technologies.
