Union Pacific Corp
- Public alignment report
- Withdrawal mechanism
- Paris Agreement alignment
- Direct lobbying governance
- Regular monitoring cycle
Union Pacific demonstrates a moderate climate lobbying governance process by detailing regular reviews of trade association memberships ("reviews its participation in these organizations periodically and as memberships come up for renewal") and committing to a "deep dive analysis into our key trade association memberships" with a report to be published in 2023. It shows alignment of both direct and indirect lobbying - "actively lobbied for the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act" and "actively participate in the policy-making process with these organizations" while engaging in industry bodies like the AAR Decarbonization Working Group - and has made a public commitment to align its engagement with the Paris Agreement goals ("Yes"). However, the company does not disclose any specific individual or formal body responsible for overseeing or reviewing its lobbying alignment, leaving the governance oversight role unspecified.
