I want the SEC to look out for the best interests of the American people like they are supposes to by requiring publicly traded corporations to publicly disclose all their political spending. It is appalling what the Supreme Court has done to our political system since their ruling on Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission allowing publicly traded corporations to spend unlimited amounts of investor's money on political campaigns. This kind of influence by corporate money on our electoral process is appalling. Investors have a right to know where the money is going!
Until we overturn Citizens United, this is necessary. Please do the right thing for American and its citizens and make a ruling that requires disclosure of publicly traded political spending.
Thank you for considering my comment.
