“This attempted crackdown is purely ideological in nature — it is an exercise in political pressure to force a gross government overreach into U.S. capital markets.”

PRECISELY the argument against ESG. Ah, accuse your enemy of what you’re doing yourself...

3 of the DUMBEST DEMOCRATS IN THE SENATE WROTE THIS CRAP!


Sadly, not. Patty Murray, Crazy Mazie Horono and many other mentally disabled Democrat Senators come to mind before these three Dems.

More oppositeness. Up is down. Black is white. ESG is not government overreach—free markets are.

Any money manager putting their clients in ESG is violating their responsibility as a fiduciary.l
