Subject: RE: Disclosure Effectiveness Review

NOW IS THE TIME FOR OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS TO WORK FOR MORAL AND ETHICAL VALUES. STOP THE WHEELING AND DEALING FOR MONEY AND POWER. BRING RESPECT BACK TO THE VALUES AND STRENGTH AMERICANS DESERVE FROM OUR REPRESENTATIVES. NO MORE BACKDOOR SNEAKING AND CANIVING. WORK FOR THE PLANET, NATURE AND PEOPLE, NOT YOURSELVES.

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.
