Subject: RE: Disclosure Effectiveness Review

Please continue work on a rule requiring disclosure of each contribution in funds or in kind services made by public companies subject to SEC rules to each specified candidate for political office and each associated or independent political action committee, including contributions that are "bundled", and industry associations doing so. Such a rule is in the clear interest of company 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, as each shareholder has a right to determine for themselves based on information that the company needs to provide.

Thank you for your service to our country.
