Assembly Bill 946 by Assemblyman Phil Ting, D-San Francisco, would force the state to drop its pension investments in any companies involved in the project.


The California public employee's pension program is $800 billion unfunded so that ain't much of a hammer

Trump should just ban California companies from bidding. Let them have what they want.

Illegals don’t pick lettuce year ‘round. They’ll build the wall in the off season.

I don’t see how such a boycott would be legal if the firm was participating in a federal government project

Can a state divest from its own government?

Democrats are all for blacklists when it serves their agenda.

This is why no politician should be forced to release their tax returns. The liberals will punish any company going business with Trump.

And of course if some contractor sued for being blacklisted, the liberal courts would throw the suit out.

“Blacklisting” is a felony, as is discussing the intent to blacklist. (conspiracy)

Build the wall everywhere else in order to funnel illegals into CA. I guess they can then show the rest of the country how heartfelt and caring they are towards illegals aka Dreamers.

Pyrrhic victory even if it should be enacted.

Foolish to go against the public when the overwhelming number of them take a common sense stand against this lawlessness.

The judge denying Trumps non-funding of Sanctuary Cites is another example of their stupidity.

Foolish Leftists, please keep going as we’ve had our fill of you.

This kind of commie craps will continue to happen as long as braindead voters insist on electing America-hating “democrats” to office.

Bring it. The type of company that has the will, the talent, the capital, and the worldview to decide to be involved in the planning, construction, operation, or maintenance of The Wall is the type of company that will be targeted soon enough for destruction by The Looters, whether they actually are involved in this particular project or not.

Build The Wall and call the moving van as the last check coming from DHS is being written.

I’d work on that wall just to tick Californication off!

Seriously, they cannot blacklist any citizen. THAT is illegal, and probably unconstitutional. Although with the whacky liberal judges we see lately, the constitution is maybe not relevant.
