Pfizer PAC and Corporate Political
Contributions Report
January 2015 – June 2015
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 PAC
Our 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 nonpartisan 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 different 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 reporting
requirements governing PAC and corporate political contributions.
Pfizer has a Corporate Policy Procedure (#802a) that requires all PAC and
corporate political contributions to be compiled and published semiannually
in a report that is made available to employees, shareholders, and
the public, and posted on the Company’s website at www.pfizer.com in
“Lobbying and Political Contributions” under the “About Pfizer” tab within
the “Corporate Governance” section. At the end of each Federal cycle
(every two years), the Pfizer PAC is audited by Bond Beebe, a certified public
accounting 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 Pfizer
dues or payments used for expenditures or contributions that, if made
directly by Pfizer, would not be deductible under section 162(e)(1)(B) of
the Internal Revenue Code. We are disclosing such information received
from our trade associations in this report.
Pfizer has a PAC Steering Committee comprised of eight colleagues who
review and approve all PAC and corporate political contributions on a
monthly basis. To ensure adequate representation, Steering Committee
members represent different divisions within the Pfizer organization. The
PAC Steering Committee evaluates candidates on a basis of their views on
issues that impact Pfizer and its colleagues. It also takes note of whether
Pfizer facilities or colleagues reside in a candidate’s district or state. In
addition, all PAC and corporate contribution requests are shared with the
Pfizer Political Contributions Policy Committee for review. The Political
Contributions 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 reviewed
and approved by the Political Contributions Policy Committee and
subsequently 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 independent
expenditures, a decision which has been discussed at the executive level
as well as with the Corporate Governance Committee of our Board.
