Pacific Stock Exchange Also Against Prop. 211
- Share via
The Pacific Stock Exchange should have been included in “NYSE, Nasdaq, Amex Contributing $520,000 to Defeat Prop. 211” (Aug. 27), the trial lawyers’ initiative allowing unlimited lawsuits against publicly traded companies.
We have donated $15,000 to this effort, which is by far the largest commitment ever made by the exchange to a political campaign.
Prop. 211 is nothing short of appalling. It is ill-conceived and poorly drafted. If adopted, it would expose directors of California companies to unlimited personal liability for sudden stock market movements over which they have no control.
