CU joins consumer advocates in opposing weakened investor protections

Vote NO on the DeMint Amendment
Amendment Would Hurt Investors, Undermine Market Competitiveness
We have heard reports that Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) may offer an amendment to S. 761, the America Competes Act that would make compliance with the internal control provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act voluntary for the majority of public companies.
