Dear Commissioners:

 

As a shareholder in more than two dozen publicly traded companies, I applaud 
your decision to consider reforming rules that affect my rights, namely the 
right to select the directors of my companies.  It seems only fair --  and 
right.  In the past several years we have seen the abuses that can result when 
CEO's and directors are too closely associated.  The owners, not management, 
should nominate and elect those they wish to serve as their fiduciaries.  

 

Sincerely,

 

 

 

Bart Bracken
