We would never let a manufacturer post a warning label on a product in Ancient Greek.
But when everyday Americans are making investment decisions, we allow disclosure documents detailing critical issues such as conflicts of interest to be written in complex jargon that most people can't understand.
Our government has a responsibility to provide Americans with the information they need to invest their hard-earned savings -- that's why we're excited to share that Sean's bill, the SEC Disclosure Effectiveness Testing Act, just passed the House!
It requires the Securities and Exchange Commission to make sure that disclosures are clear and concise enough to be understood by the average investor, so that Americans can make informed decisions.
"From buying a house to planning for your retirement, the American dream depends on our ability to invest in our future." -- Congressman Sean Casten
