Pfizer PAC – Our Voices. Our Impact. A Message from Sally Susman, Chair, Pfizer PAC
I am pleased to share our semi-annual 2016 election cycle political contributions report, which includes a list of candidates and political committees supported either by Pfizer or the Pfizer PAC from January 1, 2015, through June 30, 2015. The 2016 election cycle also commemorates the 40th Anniversary of the Pfizer PAC.
The Pfizer PAC is bipartisan; we contribute to candidates of both political parties. So far this cycle we have supported 316 candidates at all levels of government. I hope you will take time to review the report to see which candidates the PAC supported in your state and community.
We continue to face significant legislative and regulatory challenges and each election cycle is critical to our industry. Our elected representatives are making difficult choices, including focusing on cost reductions that could fundamentally affect our ability to compete and innovate.
Pfizer’s goal is to bring innovative therapies to patients that significantly improve their lives. We do that by generating sustained, positive “public will” among the general public, policymakers, and all of our stakeholders to help build constructive discourse in the political and regulatory environment in support of short-and long-term business priorities. Those priorities include the protection of intellectual property, regulatory reform, comprehensive tax reform, free trade, and protecting Medicare Part D from the impact of the debt and deficit reduction negotiations. At the state level, we are working to reform insurer practices, cap out-of-pocket costs, eliminate barriers to access to innovative vaccines, and pass civil justice reform legislation.
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 and vaccines. 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.
Thank you for your support,
Sally Susman Chair, Pfizer PAC

PFIZER PACOur Voices, Our Impact.
What is a PAC?
PAC stands for Political Action Committee. A political action committee is a government- regulated organization that anyone can form to raise money for political campaign donations. PACs are formed by individuals, non-profits, and even many major corporations.
How Does Pfizer PAC Work?
The Pfizer political action committee, Pfizer PAC, is a non-partisan organization that provides opportunities for employees to participate in the American political process. The Pfizer PAC is an employee-run organization with a Steering Committee made up of Pfizer employees from dif-ferent divisions of the company. All corporate PACs are funded by voluntary employee contributions. Pfizer PAC is no different; it relies on the participation of Pfizer colleagues.
Who Receives Pfizer PAC Contributions?
Pfizer PAC is nonpartisan. It supports Democrats and Republicans alike. From January 2015 through June 2015 Pfizer PAC supported 316 candidates. True to its nonpartisan values, Pfizer PAC is committed to support candidates from both political parties who share Pfizer’s vision and values for healthcare. When choosing to make a contribution to a candidate, the Pfizer PAC considers candidates’ views on issues that impact Pfizer and its employees as well as the presence of Pfizer facilities or employees in the candidate’s district or state. A complete list of Pfizer PAC and state corporate political contributions for January 2015 -June 2015 is included in this report.

Pfizer PAC & Political Contributions Governance Policy
Pfizer complies fully with all federal, state, and local laws and reportingrequirements governing PAC and corporate political contributions.
Pfizer has a Corporate Policy Procedure (#802a) that requires all PAC andcorporate political contributions to be compiled and published semiannuallyin a report that is made available to employees, shareholders, andthe public, and posted on the Company’s website at www.pfizer.com in“Lobbying and Political Contributions” under the “About Pfizer” tab withinthe “Corporate Governance” section. At the end of each Federal cycle (every two years), the Pfizer PAC is audited by Bond Beebe, a certified publicaccounting and advisory firm.
Pfizer also requests that trade associations receiving total payments of$100,000 or more from Pfizer in a given year report the portion of Pfizerdues or payments used for expenditures or contributions that, if madedirectly by Pfizer, would not be deductible under section 162(e)(1)(B) ofthe Internal Revenue Code. We are disclosing such information receivedfrom our trade associations in this report.
Pfizer has a PAC Steering Committee comprised of eight colleagues whoreview and approve all PAC and corporate political contributions on amonthly basis. To ensure adequate representation, Steering Committeemembers represent different divisions within the Pfizer organization. ThePAC Steering Committee evaluates candidates on a basis of their views onissues that impact Pfizer and its colleagues. It also takes note of whetherPfizer facilities or colleagues reside in a candidate’s district or state. Inaddition, all PAC and corporate contribution requests are shared with thePfizer Political Contributions Policy Committee for review. The PoliticalContributions Policy Committee is responsible for governing the Pfizer PAC.
Pfizer does not traditionally make contributions to 527 Issue Organizations.If we were asked to make such a contribution, it would have to be reviewedand approved by the Political Contributions Policy Committee andsubsequently disclosed in our semi-annual report.
Finally, in light of the Supreme Court decision in the Citizens United case,Pfizer has determined that it will not make any direct independentexpenditures, a decision which has been discussed at the executive levelas well as with the Corporate Governance Committee of our Board.
