Committee meeting documentation Part VI line 8b The audit and compensation committees keep contemporaneous minutes, but the executive committee (while it existed) did not. The executive committee served primarily to advise management, and thus did not typically exercise board powers to pass resolutions with binding effect. The size of the board decreased during the tax year, so no executive committee is currently in use. Form 990 governing body review Part VI line 11 The Fom 990 is reviewed by the President of the organization and Director of Operations, in consultation with accounting and legal professionals as appropriate. Thereafter, a final copy is circulated to all of the members of the organizations governing body prior to filing. The final copy includes the full Form 990 submitted to the IRS. Conflict of interest policy compliance Part VI line 12c The organization asks board members, officers, employees, and volunteers annually to disclose interests that may give rise to potential conflicts of interests under the Conflicts of Interest Policy. It does so in conjunction with asking for information about arrangements that may need to be disclosed on the Form 990. CEO executive director top management comp Part VI line 15a The board (or a committee thereof) has periodically reviewed compensation at comparable organizations (using Forms 990 and survey data and, more recently, compensation data analysis and opinions from a reputable independent compensation consultant) to determine appropriate general compensation levels for the President. The board or a board committee also reviews any annual bonus, but does not regather comparables as part of every bonus decision. For other employees, the President or the Director of Operations reviews compensation for similar work at peer institutions to determine compensation levels. The President reviews and approves all staff compensation. Governing documents etc available to public Part VI line 19 The certificate of incorporation and conflict of interest policy are provided upon request. Financial statements are provided to certain states for charitable solicitation purposes. Part VI response or note to any other line in Part VI Section A, Line 1a: For part of the year, the Network has a four-person executive committee, drawn from the directors of the organization. It was empowered to review and advise on decisions of mangement in between full board meetings, consistent with the direction set by the full board. It had no power to amend the Networks governing documents, dissolve or merge the Network, approve the sale or exchange of any assets of the corporation, or elect or remove directors or officers. Now that the board is only three members the Executive Committee is no longer in use. Part VII response or note to any other line in Part VII See response on Note 8 regarding the response to Part IX. Part IX response or note to any line in Part IX The organization incurred costs shared with other organizations, the American Action Forum and the Congressional Leadership Fund, often subject to reimbursement for their allocable share of the costs. In such circumstances the organization has reported only its net amount paid as expense on Part IX or as compensation reported in Part VII or Schedule J.

Although the Congressional Leadership Fund is under common management with AAN, during the tax year they did not have sufficient board overlap to qualify as related organizations for purposes of Schedule R.
