Please extend the comment period and oppose this unnecessary rule.

151A focuses on fixed index annuities, which are fixed annuities regulated by the state departments of insurance and sold by licensed insurance agents like myself.

This rule adds no consumer protection not already provided by state insurance regulation and would in fact undermine many state initiatives concerning sales practices.

Thank you for your consideration.
