Please support SB979
I have been an independent advocate for stock market reform for the past three and half years, as a fourth generation Oklahoman (my great-grandmother participated in the Oklahoma Land Run of 1889), I am asking you to please vote YES on SB979.
I live in Oklahoma City, yet have spent tens of thousands of hours educating our nation on the problems in our financial systems. I am not a lobbyist, nor am I a lawyer or even in the securities industry. I have dedicated my time to this simply because it is the right thing to do, and because I want my children and (hopefully) grandchildren to have the opportunities that all Americans should have to build a better future for themselves.
I have recently been appointed CEO and President of a publishing and entertainment company based in Oklahoma City that hopes to go public and create jobs and opportunities in our state in the publishing, film, and music industry - but ONLY if we can be assured that our financial markets are fair and honest.
This is how I described the issues that SB979 addresses in an article on my website:
Every day, six billion dollars worth of shares are purchased in companies in the US stock market, and not delivered. Someone signs on to their brokerage account, or more accurately, millions of someones sign on, and pay for shares in companies that their broker doesn't deliver. In some cases, those shares are never delivered, creating what is essentially a flood of counterfeit shares in publicly traded companies, harming both investors and the companies themselves.
This issue is NOT as much about Wall Street screwing investors as it is about the loss of potential jobs, local and state tax revenue lost, citizens' investment funds stolen, and retirement funds decimated.
Please support this bill for Oklahoma, and for all of America.
Feel free to call me at: (405) 413-8453.
Thank you,
Mark Faulk
