Dear Members of the Securities and Exchange Commission:

I look forward to a new SEC rule requiring publicly traded corporations to publish all their spending on political activities.  How a company spends to influence political outcomes is a measure of the company, which can influence investors.

Thank you for your consideration.

 

 

Sincerely,

John Hotvedt
