Subject: Comment on File Number 4-637

Dear members of the Securities and Exchange Commission:

I am writing to urge the SEC to issue a rule requiring publicly traded corporations to publicly disclose all their political spending.

Both shareholders and the public must be fully informed as to how much the corporation spends on politics and which candidates are being promoted or attacked. Disclosures should be posted promptly on the SEC's web site.

I still don't understand this ridiculous decision in the first place... if a single person has a donation limit, then how does giving a corporation "personhood" allow them unlimited donations AND allow them to hide what they donate?? It's unfair and disgusting! Until this horrible decision is reversed, we need to be sure they can't hide & cover up their political spending, make them do it out in the open & account for every penny spent!

Thank you for considering my comment.

Sincerely,

Brian Anderson
