Weekly Legislative Report #2 1-24-20
Governmental Affairs Terry Mathews: 404-310-4173 [email protected] Scott Maxwell: 404-216-8075 [email protected] The following information is intended for the sole use of the clients of Mathews & Maxwell, Inc. Please contact the principals above to learn more about the services of the firm. Weekly Legislative Report # 2 Week Ending January 24, 2020 The General Assembly was technically in recess last week, so there was no activities on bills, but the Gold Dome was by no means vacant. Joint House and Senate appropriations hearings were conducted over a three-day period midweek, featuring an initial address by the Governor followed by testimony from the state economist and 32 state agency heads. (There are 133 members when the two budget committees are combined – 83 desks in the meeting room, plus two rows of seats for the press and public. Members of the legislature who were not on an appropriations committee were asked to give up their seats for legislators who were.) Kicking things off with a brief address Tuesday morning, Kemp assured legislators, “This budget demonstrates to taxpayers that we are good stewards of their hard-earned money.” He credited state agencies for coming up with innovative ways to reduce spending without compromising the quality of service provided to citizens. The $28.1 billion FY21 recommendation most notably contains a $2,000 raise for school teachers, and a $1,000 raise for state employees currently making $40,000 or less annually. But, Georgia always passes two budgets, one for next year and one to fine-tune the current budget to ensure it balances on June 30.

House of Representatives
House of Representatives JON BURNS MAJORITY LEADER ROOM 338, STATE CAPITOL ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30334 December 4, 2020 SENT VIA EMAIL: Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger Chairperson of the State Election Board Mrs. Rebecca N. Sullivan Vice-Chairperson of the State Election Board Dear Secretary Raffensperger and Mrs. Sullivan, As I am sure you have seen over the past month, many Georgians, including my colleagues who have signed this correspondence, have serious concerns about Georgia’s elections. As we approach a critical election on January 5, 2021, it is clear that Georgia voters must have confidence in the election process going forward. To that end, below you will find two common-sense suggestions: a rule that should be promulgated by the State Election Board (the “SEB”) and additional resources of which the Office of the Secretary of State (the “SOS”) or the SEB could take advantage. I. Absentee Ballot Application and Mail-In Absentee Ballot Signature Review Process. As the process currently stands, when a voter wishes to vote early by mail, they submit an Absentee Ballot Application (“Application”) either through the mail or online. When a local Board of Registrars (the “BOR”) receives a paper Application, typically, a single employee of the BOR is responsible for the initial review of a signature on a paper Application. If that paper Application is accepted, the BOR mails an Absentee Ballot to the voter. The process for reviewing signatures on the external envelope of a returned Absentee Ballot is the same – a single employee of the BOR is allowed to “approve” a signature without oversight by other employees or independent observers.

The ACLU of Georgia envisions a state that guarantees all persons the civil liberties and rights con- tained in the United States and Georgia Constitutions and Bill of Rights.

We are an inclusive, nonpartisan, state- wide organization powered by our members, donors and active volunteers. How do we select the bills to analyze? Which bills did we choose, and why?

2011 Political Contributions
2011 POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS 2011 Lilly Political Contributions 2 Government actions such as price controls, pharmaceutical manufacturer rebates, the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA), and access to Lilly medicines affect our ability to invest in innovation. Lilly has a comprehensive government relations operation to have a voice in the public policymaking process at both the state and federal levels. Lilly is committed to participating in the political process as a responsible corporate citizen to help inform the U.S. debate over health care and pharmaceutical innovation. As a company that operates in a highly competitive and regulated industry, Lilly must participate in the political process to fulfill its fiduciary responsibility to its shareholders, and its overall responsibilities to its customers and its employees. Corporate Political Contribution Elected officials, no matter what level, have an impact on public policy issues affecting Lilly. We are committed to backing candidates who support public policies that contribute to pharmaceutical innovation and healthy patients. A number of factors are considered when reviewing candidates for support. The following evaluation criteria are used to allocate political contributions: • Has the candidate historically voted or announced positions on issues of importance to Lilly, such as pharmaceutical innovation and health care? • Has the candidate demonstrated leadership on key committees of importance to our business? • Does the candidate demonstrate potential for legislative leadership?
