I'm writing to offer my strong support for an SEC rule requiring that publicly traded corporations disclose all spending on political activities.
As an individual with retirement savings in a Roth IRA, I prefer to invest in funds that are socially responsible. Knowledge of political spending is very important to this. If I'm to invest in a corporation, I want to know how it is then spending my money--both in terms of its business practices, and in terms of its political spending.
Please issue a strong rule on disclosure of political spending. Thank you for considering my comment.
Sincerely,
Matthew Borus
