INTERNAL CONTROL REPORT
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees of The Money Market Portfolios and
Shareholders of The U S Government Money Market Portfolio
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements
of The U S Government Money Market Portfolio (the "Fund") as of and
for the year ended June 30, 2018, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB"),
we considered the Fund's internal control over financial reporting,
including controls over safeguarding securities, as a basis for
designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our
opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the requirements
of Form N-CEN, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Fund's internal control over financial reporting.
The management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining
effective internal control over financial reporting. In fulfilling
this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required
to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process
designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of
financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for
external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting
includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the
maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and
fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets
of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions
are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company
are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection
of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a company's
assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial
reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of
any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk
that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or
that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
A deficiency in internal control over financial reporting exists when the
design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees,
in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or
detect misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency,
or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial
reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements will
not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Our consideration of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting
was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph and would
not necessarily disclose all deficiencies in internal control over
financial reporting that might be material weaknesses under standards
established by the PCAOB. However, we noted no deficiencies in the Fund's
internal control over financial reporting and its operation, including
controls over safeguarding securities, that we consider to be a material
weakness as defined above as of June 30, 2018.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Board of
Trustees of The Money Market Portfolios and the Securities and
Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used
by anyone other than these specified parties.

MATERIAL AMENDMENTS
NAME OF REGISTRANT:
The Money Market Portfolios
File No. 811-07038
EXHIBIT ITEM: Copies of any material amendments to the registrant's
charter or by-laws Amendment Effective February 1, 2018
To the By-Laws of
The Money Market Portfolios (the "Trust")
WHEREAS, Article VIII, Section 2 of the By-Laws provides that the By-Laws
may be amended by the Board of Trustees; and
WHEREAS, by resolutions adopted October 24, 2017 at a meeting of the
Board of Trustees of the Trust, the Board of Trustees unanimously
authorized the By-Laws to be amended as set forth below.
NOW THEREFORE, the By-Laws are hereby amended as follows:
1. ARTICLE VII, Sections 3, 4 and 6 are replaced in their
entirety with the following:
* * * * * *
Section 3. CERTIFICATES FOR SHARES. No certificate or certificates
for Shares shall be issued to Shareholders and no Shareholder shall
have the right to demand or require that a certificate for Shares be
issued to it. The Trust shall adopt and use a system of issuance,
recordation and transfer of its shares by electronic or other means.
Section 4. LOST CERTIFICATES. No new certificate for Shares shall
be issued to replace an old certificate that is surrendered to the Trust
for cancellation. In case any Share certificate or certificate for any other
security is lost, stolen, or destroyed, such certificate shall be
cancelled and the ownership of an uncertificated Share shall be
recorded upon the books of the Trust, on such terms and conditions as the
Board may require, including a provision for indemnification of the Board
and the Trust secured by a bond or other adequate security sufficient to
protect the Trust and the Board against any claim that may be made against
either, including any expense or liability on account of the alleged loss,
theft, or destruction of the certificate.
* * * * * *
Section 6. TRANSFERS OF SHARES. Shares are transferable,
if authorized by the Declaration of Trust, only on the record books
of the Trust by the Person in whose name such Shares are registered,
or by his or her duly authorized attorney-in-fact or representative.
Upon receipt of proper transfer instructions from the registered owner
of certificated Shares, and upon the surrender for cancellation of such
certificates representing the number of Shares to be transferred with an
assignment and power of transfer endorsed thereon or attached thereto, duly
executed, with such proof of the authenticity of the signature as the
Trust or its agents may reasonably require, the Trust shall cancel the old
certificate and record the transaction and ownership of uncertificated
Shares upon the books of the Trust. Upon receipt of proper transfer
instructions from the registered owner of uncertificated Shares, such
uncertificated Shares shall be transferred on the record books to the
Person entitled thereto. The Trust, its transfer agent or other duly
authorized agents may refuse any requested transfer of Shares, or request
additional evidence of authority to safeguard the assets or interests of
the Trust or of its Shareholders, in their sole discretion. In all cases
of transfer by an attorney-in-fact, the original power of attorney, or
an official copy thereof duly certified, shall be deposited and remain
with the Trust, its transfer agent or other duly authorized agent.
In case of transfers by executors, administrators, guardians or other
legal representatives, duly authenticated evidence of their authority shall
be presented to the Trust, its transfer agent or other duly authorized
agent, and may be required to be deposited and remain with the Trust,
its transfer agent or other duly authorized agent.
Adopted and approved as of October 24, 2017 by the Board of Trustees.
