On Monday, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced legislation that would protect Floridians from banks from using Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) social credit scores in how they lend.
DeSantis said ESG has become a "mechanism to inject political ideology into investment decisions, corporate governance, and really just the everyday economy," Florida's Voice reports.

“On Monday, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced legislation “
DeSantis doesn’t wait around for the legislature to act!
-——————August 2022—————
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Today, Governor Ron DeSantis along with fellow Trustees of the State Board of Administration (SBA) passed a resolution directing the state of Florida’s fund managers to invest state funds in a manner that prioritizes the highest return on investment for Florida’s taxpayers and retirees without considering the ideological agenda of the environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) movement. This update to the fiduciary duties of the SBA’s investment fund managers and investment advisors clearly defines the factors fiduciaries are to consider in investment decisions and states that ESG considerations will not be included in the state of Florida’s pension investment management practices.
From my link to The Post Millenial:
“According to the press release, the legislation would prohibit “the financial sector from considering so called ‘Social Credit Scores’ in banking and lending practices that aim to prevent Floridians from obtaining loans, lines of credit, and bank accounts” and prohibit “big banks, trusts, and other financial institutions from discriminating against customers for their religious, political, or social beliefs — including their support for securing the border, owning a firearm, and increasing our energy independence.””
Another globalist move! (sarc)
DeSantis certainly has a lot of energy. He’s a reformer.
He’s like the Energizer bunny. Getting more done in a couple months than average politicians do in a career.
Nice sound action.
Too little being done. Perhaps others can get legislation proposed in detail to achieve something real.

Lending? How about expanding that restriction on banks to prohibit the use of ESG for .... any banking activity.
- opening an account
- payments
- transfer of money
- other banking services
Love this guy!!!!
Faggetaboutit!!
“Too little being done. Perhaps others can get legislation proposed in detail to achieve something real.”
Obviously you have no clue and are just trolling DeDantis threads.
Something real was done last year. This just makes it law to carry into the future.
The more I read about Ron DeSantis, the more I like him.
This is what working, not ranting, looks like.
Unfortunately a lot of Trump’s army feed solely off his anger, and Trump knows it.
“Unfortunately a lot of Trump’s army feed solely off his anger, and Trump knows it.”
He thinks it is keeping them from supporting DeSantis but it is actually doing the opposite.
His army is only makes us focus on his bad side. Definitely not a winning strategy.
