  • 2021 Legislative Update Week 6
    2021 Legislative Update: Week 6 Overview For the first time since the session began on February 2, the Legislature met for two legislative days this week. As of this writing, representatives and senators have met for 14 legislative days out of a possible 30 and will return next week for two more legislative days before a planned one-week Spring Break. While the time spent in the House and Senate Chambers may have been less than usual, the week started with a surprise and included plenty of work in committee and on the floor. Gaming Bills As promised, Senate Bill 214, the comprehensive gaming bill introduced by Sen. Del Marsh of Anniston, made its return to the Senate floor on Tuesday. Behind the scenes, the legislation had been the subject of much discussion between proponents and politicos over the past few weeks, with much of the conversation focusing on where casinos would be located and how new tax revenues would be distributed. But after a lengthy debate on the Senate floor, which included the adoption of several amendments, including one that increased the number of casinos to 10, Marsh’s legislation fell two votes shy of what was needed for passage. The final vote was 19-13, but since the bill was a proposed constitutional amendment, a total of 21 votes were necessary. Importantly, two Senators, Sen. Priscilla Dunn of Bessemer and Sen. Malika Sanders-Fortier of Selma, were absent due to health reasons, and a vacancy exists in one Senate district, District 14, due to former Sen. Cam Ward’s appointment as Director of the Board of Pardons and Paroles.

    2 As a biopharmaceutical company that treats serious diseases, Lilly plays an important role in public health and its related policy debates. It is important that our company shapes global public policy debates on issues specific to the people we serve and to our other key stakeholders including shareholders and employees. Our engagement in the political arena helps address the most pressing issues related to ensuring that patients have access to needed medications—leading to improved patient outcomes. Through public policy engagement, we provide a way for all of our locations globally to shape the public policy environment in a manner that supports access to innovative medicines. We engage on issues specific to local business environments (corporate tax, for example). Based on our company’s strategy and the most recent trends in the policy environment, our company has decided to focus on three key areas: innovation, health care delivery, and pricing and reimbursement. More detailed information on key issues can be found in our 2012/13 Corporate Responsibility update. Through our policy research, development, and stakeholder dialogue activities, Lilly develops positions and advocates on these key issues. Government actions such as price controls, pharmaceutical manufacturer rebates, 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 the federal, state and local 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.
