MADAM CHAIRWOMAN I AM ONE OF THE MANY WHO HAVE LOST SO MUCH OF THEIR RETIREMENT MONEY DUE TO THE ALLOWING OF THE "UPTICK RULE" TO EXPIRE.

I HAVE NEVER WRITTEN OR RESPONDED TO ANYTHING PRIOR TO THIS IN MY WHOLE LIFE. I WILL BE 62 YEARS OF AGE NEXT MONTH SO MY RECOVER TIME IS NOT

THERE. BUT IF YOU BRING BACK THE "UPTICK RULE", IT WOULD NOT ONLY HELP ME BUT COUNTLESS OTHERS SO PLEASE SEARCH YOUR HEART AND DO THE

RIGHT THING. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME,

MARY J. HUBBARD
