Dear SEC Secretary,

I strongly support the SEC's proposed rule to require mutual fund 
companies to disclose how they vote on corporate proxy resolutions, 
which often deal with issues of concern to me as a mutual fund owner.  

Without public disclosure, I am in no position to hold the manager 
of my mutual funds accoutable. 

I want potential conflicts of interest exposed.  I want to know what 
principles will guide the mutual fund in determining how it votes in 
corporate proxy contests. 

As a mutual fund owner, it is not unreasonable for me to know how my 
proxy is being voted. I urge the SEC to stand up for investors , for 
corporate accountability, and for the principal of open and trustworthy 
markets, and to vote in favor of the proposed proxy voting rule.
