They use proxy advisers. Let me see. Who wants this bill? Every corporation in America. Why? They don't want you knowing what they are doing. Let's see. Whose side am I on? I think if I have a choice between being on the side of the biggest corporations in this country or being with the Dominican Sisters, I am choosing the Dominican Sisters. They are doing God's work. They use and need proxy advisers. Leave them alone.
