Securities and Exchange Comm.

Dear Securities and Exchange Comm.,

Notwithstanding the notorious "Citizens' United" ruling from the U.S. Supreme Court, it is reasonable and certainly high time to change SEC rules to require disclosure of corporate political spending. We may already look with dismay at the incredible amount of spending poured into recent political campaigns, but what greater threat can there be to a free society than the spectre of power and capital wielded from the shadows?

Please--change the SEC rules now!

Thank you for considering my comment.

Sincerely,

John L. Geffroy
