Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., joined forces with 18 GOP governors to reject President Joe Biden's environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) "agenda," claiming the push is a "direct threat" to the economic freedom of American retirees.
Governors in Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Iowa, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia and Wyoming formed the alliance Thursday in what they described as an effort to ensure American retirement funds are not used for "woke" investments.
"Yet again, President Biden put his political agenda above the wellbeing and individual freedoms of hardworking Americans," the Republican governors wrote. "We as freedom loving states can work together and leverage our state pension funds to force change in how major asset managers invest the money of hardworking Americans, ensuring corporations are focused on maximizing shareholder value, rather than the proliferation of woke ideology."
"The proliferation of ESG throughout America is a direct threat to the American economy, individual economic freedom, and our way of life, putting investment decisions in the hands of the woke mob to bypass the ballot box and inject political ideology into investment decisions, corporate governance, and the everyday economy," the states said.

We’ve seen lots of liberal trolls on FR. It really is time JR cleaned house.
Imagine if Trump had picked DeSantis as AG. That would have been awesome.
“Desantis did NOT spearhead this alliance, he joined”
Your reading comprehension is clouded by your liberal hatred of DeSantis. He is effective against the homosexual agenda and that seems to really piss you off. Good!
“Ha.... Fish rots from the head down .. pay attention.”
Well, Florida isn’t rotting. We’re doing better thane ever with DeSantis. Every week we get him and the Florida legislature doing someone great. Sorry you hate those American wins, but we really don’t give AF about you liberals anymore.
Actually what you a watching in slow motion is a grass roots “Draft DeSantis” movement forming.
You can shout louder but you can’t stop it. He won’t throw his hat in until it is loudly echoing from sea to shining sea.

I do not do double standards or double speak ... LOOOK who was involved in the abortion rights and the gay agenda becoming the law of this land. I am NOT referring to the sainted Desantis ... but who hold court above US.
I comprehend just fine, and I recognize deceivers by their deeds not their huffing and puffing ... Now exactly how much did the perverts at Disney pay up to the saint Desantis after he threatened them..? Desantis should return every thin dime... but he won't because he neeeeeeeds the $$$$$ just like godfather Joey sitting in OUR White House,
If you say so. From your lips to God's ear.
The very fact that you reflexively throw silly pejoratives around like "saint DeSantis" is a pretty clear indicator that you've imbibed too much Kool-Aid. You would serve yourself well, as well as benefit the conservative cause, to take a break for a while, and regain your mental balance.
LOL wait until the pythons take over ..
I do not expect to stop anything ... Some things need be ... my purpose is to be standing on firm ground not the sands of unstable ground ...
*Who is NOT included in the above named states?
Let’s look-
Younkin-Virginga. One week after that CNN town hall on education.
NV.-GOP Gov.
Ohio/Ind/SC/Tx/Ind-All squish governors
Vermont-whadda ya expect?
NH-they’re in!-I doan’ believe it!
ROFL!!!
Even you aren't stupid enough to actually believe that.
I've been wondering the extent to which religious bigotry forms the foundation of DeSantis Derangement Syndrome. The truth is starting to leak out.
I do not live in Florida... and I am not going to be bullied to see things differently than they literally are... The GOPe is completely corrupt and evil as the progressive left ... I will never vote for a neocon again ... when the likes of Karl Rove, and lying Ryan spew Desantis virtues it is a ‘red’ flag ...
Now a Yale law degree is hello a warning given other past law degree graduates... maybe DeSantis is more cunning than the ol BJClinton.
But you all carry on ... there is a whole lot of blood on these Catholic saints.
Laugh your laugh... religious bigotry ... seriously .... this nation is being destroyed and we are paying them to do it ... who do you think is orchestrating the illegal invasion ... bigotry seriously ... some people deserve what is coming.
You can blather and drivel all you want, but you freely and notoriously revealed your own base motives; they condemn anything you have to say on the topic.
“Just your thoughts”??? Your thoughts are beneath contempt.
You have a mighty high opinion of yourself ... but hey carry on ... ‘remember’, judge not lest ye be judged’. Ol Frankies very own words!!
No surprise that RINO Mike Dewine (Ohio Gov) is not on the list. He is almost as bad as Ohio Congressman - Mike “Ukranian kneepads” Turner.
And YOU have the nerve to call me a religious bigot ... pound sand.
Have you ever met the man? I would wager "no".
You don't know what you are talking about. You are acting foolish. Give it, and yourself, a rest.
