Dear Members of the Securities and Exchange Commission:

Knowing the SEC has been corrupt since the days it was founded following the Great Depression and that every head of the SEC has always been a crooked banker, here goes my futile plea echoing millions of true Americans that it's long past time to end secret political spending by corporations.

So I strongly support the SEC issuing a rule in the near future that would require publicly traded corporations to publicly disclose all their spending on political activities.

Both shareholders and the public deserve to know how much a given corporation spends on politics (directly and through intermediaries), and which candidates are being promoted or attacked.

Thank you for considering my comment.

Sincerely,

Jeff Bower
