I recently read that there are changes proposed to make it more difficult for 
stockholders to get resolutions on the ballot for the annual meeting.  I think 
that this is a BAD idea.  The current requirements are stringent enough.  To 
tighten them would allow corporations to ignore social issues altogether, when 
the stockholders might very well have an opinion, if these issues were brought 
to their attention.
Please do not make the changes proposed to make it more difficult to bring 
issues to the stockholders.
     
Thank You.
