Update: Keep your emails coming to the SEC and Congress after October 2, 2007!

The Social Investment Forum (SIF) and the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility (ICCR) are urging all American investors who care about their rights as the owners of companies to tell the SEC and Congress that the rights of shareholders must be preserved. The SIF and ICCR are mounting the www.SaveShareholderRights.org campaign to stop the SEC from severely limiting the rights of shareholders.

Please pick one of the two following categories in order to make sure that your voice is heard today:

I am an individual investor and want to speak out to the SEC and Congress.

I represent an institution or am a financial professional with assets under management.
