From: liz@taosnet.com Sent: Thursday, December 05, 2002 10:08 PM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: Re: File No. S7-36-02 SEC Secretary Mr. Jonathan G. Katz 450 Fifth Street, NW Washington, DC 20549 Dear SEC Secretary Mr. Jonathan G. Katz, Re: File No. S7-36-02 Dear Mr. Katz: I am writing to express my strong support for the SEC's proposed rule (S7-36-02) to require mutual funds to disclose their proxy voting policies and, most importantly, their actual proxy voting decisions. Requiring mutual funds to disclose their proxy votes in an easily accessible format is the only way that investors can ensure that Fidelity and other mutual fund companies exercise their proxy voting authority to promote our interests rather than to boost their own bottom line. I strongly urge to SEC to adopt its proposed rule. Sincerely, Lisbet Schwartz PO Box 444 Arroyo Seco, New Mexico 87514
