Subject: File No. SR-NYSE-2023-09
From: Anthony Provenzano

I am writing to you about the SEC’s filing "SR-NYSE-2023-09." Please consider how harmful this this proposal is in combination with the current administrations plan to enroll federal lands into NACs. Please take seriously the letter Rep. Harriet Hageman sent to the SEC Chairman Erik Gerding demanding answers to several questions and an extension of the public comment period for their Natural Asset Companies (NAC) rule. Which demands answers to four fundamental questions: What are the “unique listing requirements” the NYSE refers to? Does the SEC claim oversight authority of NACs? If so, what oversight activities will the SEC perform in regard to NACs? By what right does the SEC have to confer “management authority” over federal lands? This seems to be one of the biggest threats of the future to the everyday American. It directly violates the 5th Amendment, "No person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation." And 14th Amendment, Equal Protection and Other Rights. In Section 1, "No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. Our founding fathers specifically mention property rights multiple times in many of the founding documents. As well as in Federalist papers; Federalist 54, James Madison stated concisely: “Government is instituted no less for the protection of the property than of the persons of individuals.” He further explained in his "Address at the Virginia Convention" that property rights are as important as personal rights because the two are intimately connected. The right to labor and acquire property is itself an important personal right and entitled to government protection; and the property acquired through the exercise of this personal right is entitled, by derivation, to an equal protection. Thank you for your time
