Dear Senator:
Vote NO on the DeMint Amendment
Amendment Would Hurt Investors, Undermine Market Competitiveness

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.
