Did outgoing Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Mary Schapiro worry more about the legacy she leaves behind than a long-delayed Congressional mandate?

That is the question asked, and accusation leveled, by a member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform in a letter to Schapiro that was posted in the public comments section of the SEC’s website on Friday. The missive, written by U.S. Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-NC), was sent via his role on the Subcommittee of TARP, Financial Services and Bailouts of Public and Private Programs.
