CPRT Expert Dialogue with Bruce Freed, President & Cofounder of The Center for Political Accountability

Preparing for Greater Political Spending Transparency as 2022 Campaigning Begins

As campaigning starts up for 2022, companies face critical decisions about how to align their political influence with their public commitments and shifting expectations from employees, investors, customers and the public. How can firms respond to expectations of greater transparency, knowing over 76% of Americans from all parties expect full disclosure? How should firms think about 2022 mid-term giving in light of increased scrutiny and real implications for civic institutions, social justice and public trust? What disclosure should companies prepare for in the future as the SEC evaluates public comments on climate change and ESG-related disclosures?

Please join us on June 29 from 3:00 – 4:15 pm ET for an in-depth dialogue with Bruce Freed, President & Cofounder of the Center for Political Accountability. Bruce and CPRT Director, Elizabeth Doty, will explore:
– CPA-Zicklin Model Code of Conduct for Corporate Political Spending
– Scenarios and strategies to prepare for SEC political spending disclosure rules
– Strategies for navigating the pressures around 2022 fundraising
