I favor requiring mutual funds to disclose proxy votes to the funds' 
shareholders and owners.

If a proxy is voted on my behalf a fund company should reveal how it voted my 
proxy.

Require funds to immediately disclose their proxy votes; let's end these 
conflicts of interest between fund companies and their owners, who must no 
longer be kept in the dark.
