Abstract
Amici submit this brief to share expertise on corporate governance and securities laws and practices that relate directly to the lower court’s narrow-tailoring analysis of the Maine statute at the center of this case. While all participating amici may not agree with every statement in the brief, all amici agree that the Act’s 5% equity ownership threshold is not arbitrary and that ownership of 5% or more of a U.S. entity’s equity by a foreign government or a foreign-government-influenced entity presents a foreign influence on the U.S. entity’s governance and decision-making.
