President Bush nominated Rep. Chris Cox (R-Calif.) to chair the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the nation’s top securities regulator. As a member of Congress, Cox has built a long record of undermining protections for working families, retirees and their pension funds at nearly every opportunity—and of accepting contributions from Wall Street.

President Bush wants to invest our Social Security money in the capital markets. The SEC is the regulatory agency that supervises the capital markets. As chairman, Cox would run the SEC on a daily basis and have enormous power to enforce securities laws, set regulations, hold corporate wrongdoers accountable and police America's retirement security.

Cox would need Senate confirmation to win the SEC job. Please tell your senators to vigorously investigate Chris Cox's record before making him the top cop of the capital markets at the Securities and Exchange Commission.
