Subject: RE: Disclosure Effectiveness Review

The political shenanigans coming from heavy lobbying from corporations has gone to far and caused real damage in we the people's ability to trust the government.
We need real and clear transparency now.

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.
