I came across the following site today:
proxydemocracy.org [proxydemocracy.org]
Essentially the helps individual investors better understand proxy voting.
Most individual investors don't have the time or money to learn about all the proposals at the companies they own stocks in, so I think this site is a good idea and a step forward.
"ProxyDemocracy helps individual shareowners see how to vote their shares in ways consistent with their goals, and which mutual funds and pension funds vote in ways consistent with the goals of the individuals who invest through them"
"The ProxyDemocracy.org website's new Focus List capability lets you compare funds' voting records on any chosen proxy issue (environmental, social, governance, etc.). You can then choose to receive (by email before the voting deadline) future voting decisions of funds you respect, and use that as a guide to voting your own shares."
