Pete Sessions: “I believe shareholders would also be entitled to know who is attempting to influence them and what those words might be…”

On the recordApril 18, 2007
I believe shareholders would also be entitled to know who is attempting to influence them and what those words might be that they choose, rather than just beating up a company. I don't think it is good for anybody in this country to receive a message that might be aimed at someone without full disclosure, without the proper notification about who they were and what their intentions were. This is about transparency. This is about sunlight. This is about doing the right thing that would enhance the bill that is before us today.
