Subject: RE: Disclosure Effectiveness Review

We have seen a terrible inequality building in our country going back as far as 30 years. This has to be corrected. . .and the SEC can tribute to it or be the problem exacerbating it. As a shareholder I want to know how the businesses I have invested in is being a good citizen.

At the very least:

The SEC and its commissioners should continue to work on a rule requiring political disclosure from public companies, in the interests of their shareholders.

Businesses should not be empowered to use backdoor political channels like nonprofits or associations to do their political bidding, and shareholders have a right to know how executives are using company resources for political purposes — especially if those purposes are against shareholders' interests.
