I’m writing as a member of the public and a retail investor in response to the SEC’s request for comments on S7-06-16.

Investors deserve to know the ways corporations are buying elections, polluting our environment, affecting our economy, and more. And while corporations have little to no accountability to even their shareholders, disclosure is one solution that requires companies to consider the consequences – and the interests of their shareholders -- before making decisions that affect their shareholders and regular Americans.

It’s time for corporations to be honest with their investors and the American people.

Public corporations should at a minimum be required to:

1. Disclose their political spending.
2. Disclose their oversea tax payments, country-by-country.
3. Disclose their sustainability plans.

We need to end the secrecy and give investors the information they deserve. SHAREHOLDERS HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW WHAT AND HOW THEIR CORPORATE INVESTMENTS ARE BEING USED. I HAVE INVESTMENTS IN SEVERAL CORPORATIONS AND IT IS A SHAM THAT WHAT THE CEOS DO IS FOR THE SHAREHOLDERS. IT IS FOR THE CEO'S POCKETBOOK. INVESTORS HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW WHAT THEY ARE INVESTING IN.
