SELC’s Campaign for Crowdfunding
SELC’s Petition to the SEC:
In July of 2010, Jenny Kassan and interns from SELC
drafted a petition to the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) requesting a rule change that could
enable a new world of crowdfunding and local investing.
Now, this effort is becoming a reality, as Congress
considers H.R. 2930.
Find out more about this important
legislation and ways you can support it!
