  • 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.

  • [ Pfizer PAC & Corporate Political Contributions Report January 2009
    1 [ Pfizer PAC & Corporate Political Contributions Report January 2009 - December 2010 ] Pfizer PAC – Our Voice. Our Impact. A Message from Sally Susman, Chair, Pfizer PAC I am pleased to share our 2009-2010 election cycle political contributions report, which includes a list of candidates and political committees that the Pfizer PAC supported from January 1, 2009 thru December 31, 2010. The Pfizer PAC is bipartisan; we contribute to candidates who share our priorities in both political parties. Last election cycle, we supported 2,158 candidates at all levels of government, and we remain the #1 pharmaceutical industry PAC. I hope you will take time to review the report to see which candidates the PAC supported in your state and community. 2 As we look back over the last two years, historic health care reform legislation was adopted and we had several public policy priorities that we actively engaged in as the debate unfolded, including: making certain that price controls and importation were not included in the new health care law, and that we secure twelve years of data exclusivity for innovator biologics. As a result, many of our business priorities were attained and the new law ultimately helps us to continue to provide our innovative medicines to the patients we serve. As Pfizer’s PAC Chair and through my interactions with elected officials, I see first-hand how decisions are made that impact our ability to discover and bring to market innovative medicines that help the patients we serve. The Pfizer PAC supports candidates who are committed to maintaining and improving incentives for innovation and protecting and expanding access for the patients we serve.
