Katz 450 Fifth Street, NW Washington, DC 20549 Dear SEC Secretary Mr. Jonathan G. Katz, Re: File No. S7-36-02 Dear Mr. Katz: I am writing to express my strong support for the SEC's proposed rule (S7-36-02) to require mutual funds to disclose their proxy voting policies and, most importantly, their actual proxy voting decisions. Just like the crooks affiliated with Enron (bankers, lobbyists and lawyers) who looked the other way during the Wall Street meltdown, Wall Street Brokerages and Mutual Fund companies have not been held accountable. I strongly urge to SEC to adopt its proposed rule. Sincerely, Jeffrey Bauman 44a Lispenard Ave New Rochelle, New York 10801
