Dear Secretary Katz,

Re: File No. S7-19-03

I am writing to offer supporting comments on SEC proposal
S7-19-03 regarding security holder director nominations. 

I applaudy your efforts to reform the corporate practices that
have given business in general a bad name. Boards have been too
pliant in awarding high compensation and retirement benefits to
corporation officers, without asking hard questions about what
exactly it is these officers are doing.

The SEC's proposed rules to give shareholders a voice in
choosing corporate directors are a step in the right direction.
However, the high ownership thresholds and two-year process will
make these reforms difficult for investors to implement. I urge
you to design a simpler process and to adopt final rules that
truly will bring shareholders into the director selection
process.

Sincerely,

Sarah Gorin
