Securities and Exchange Comm.


Dear Securities and Exchange Comm.,

I’m writing to urge the commission’s prompt approval of rules requiring public disclosure of political spending by publicly-held companies. Openness is essential, both for shareholders and the public. And it is the job of the SEC to insure that openness.


Sincerely,

Judith Mellow
