ESG PROGRESS AT MARRIOTT INTERNATIONAL → 57 ESEG PROAR TMS ORINOL In 2020, the majority of our advocacy was focused on supporting our business, owners, franchisees, and impacted associates in COVID-19 pandemic-related relief and recovery measures at the local, state, and federal level. While we understand nothing can replace a robust travel economy, the policies we pursued helped provide a bridge and ensure government support for stakeholders and industry. Marriott is committed to participating in the political process to promote its interests and business objectives, without regard to political preferences of its executives. We therefore support candidates seeking elected office at the federal, state, and local level in the United States through Marriott’s employee-funded Political Action Committee. Marriott is a member of industry and business associations, including the Business Roundtable, U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the World Travel & Tourism Council, American Hotel & Lodging Association, the World Economic Forum, and the U.S. Travel Association. Some of these U.S.-based associations also participate in lobbying and policy advocacy activities in the U.S. and are active in advancing public policy priorities. Marriott’s Chief Global Communications & Public Affairs Officer also serves as a member of the U.S. Travel and Tourism Advisory Board. Social Advocacy Positions Through our public policy support and guided by our Serve 360 platform and core values, we aim to engage in a wide range of issues that are important to key stakeholders, including customers and associates. LGBTQ Equality Marriott is a member of the HRC Global Business Coalition, a forum for major multinational businesses to advance workplace protections for LGBTQ associates worldwide. We have endorsed the Equality Act to ensure fair treatment and workplace protections under the law for members of the LGBTQ community. Support for Dreamers In 2017, Marriott joined business leaders from across the country to sign an open letter calling for the immediate passage of legislation to protect “Dreamers”. Since that time, Marriott has continued to advocate for a permanent legislative solution to this issue as a member of the Coalition for the American Dream and recently supported passage of the American Dream and Promise Act. We continue our decades-long advocacy for comprehensive immigration reform. Racial Equity & Justice and Access to Voting Marriott has always encouraged civic engagement and voting in the U.S. on the local and national level. We believe that voting and access to free and fair elections are fundamental underpinnings of our democracy and reinforce our country’s stability. To support access to voting, Marriott has supported associate communications campaigns in advance of elections in the United States, including providing resources on where to register and vote. Marriott believes expanding access to voting will increase voter participation, strengthen our democracy, and ensure that more voices are heard. We oppose any effort to restrict voting rights or access to polls as contrary to the spirit of democracy. Political Action Committee The Marriott International, Inc. Political Action Committee (MARPAC) is a nonpartisan PAC (funded by voluntary contributions made by associates). We strive for a 50/50 split in contributions to Democratic and Republican federal candidates. In the 2019- 2020 election cycle, MARPAC's total disbursements were $417,816, with $204,000 distributed directly to federal candidates. Of the $204,000 in contributions to federal candidates, 55% went to Democrats and 45% to Republicans. Following the events at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, the company made the decision to pause MARPAC contributions to Members of Congress who did not vote to certify the presidential election results. While MARPAC’s historical contributions to these individuals were not sizable, it was a principled decision to keep our political giving aligned with our values. The 2020 CPA-Zicklin Index of Corporate Political Disclosure and Accountability awarded Marriott the First Tier designation for our political disclosures. The company's 2020 CPA-Zicklin index score for political disclosure was 84.29 (59 out of 70 points), and we ranked in the top quarter of 492 S&P 500 companies that were reviewed. Public Policy Marriott maintains a robust public policy agenda, engaging leaders on a wide range of issues, including policies on visas and entry to facilitate global travel, immigration reform, civil rights and nondiscrimination, travel infrastructure, and sustainability. We aim to be transparent in our practices and believe that political participation at all levels of government is important to our business.
