so far it has cost states who have passed these laws BILLIONS in costs and lost revenues.
fundamentally, they are forcing funds to invest in their corrupt, planet killing, oligarch corporate buddys
and the RW is so stupid, they think these policies are good for them financially
this is just one end result of destroying public education, and imprinting generational hate politics
so if your pension manager sends you a notice about proposed anti esg laws in your state - pay attention
had a friend start spouting about ESG this morning
wtf??
I guess its the latest rethuglikkkan culture war - crt of the financial section if you will
for those curious - thugs are trying to legislate against municipalities, public funds (this includes teacher pension funds, civil service etc) investing in companies rated as ESG (Environmental, social and governance- basically good corporate citizens) saying it restricts the financial market place

As a matter of fact: for ANYONE here who has a water well, get a heavy metals and VOC water test now, BEFORE something happens. Nobody thinks anything is going to happen, but it's your only recourse when something does happen. If you don't have pre event water tests, you can't prove it was a result of their contamination. Even if the chemicals are the same as the known contaminants.

"We’ve had enough. We’ve joined over 100 organizations and leaders to demand that @nytimes stop printing inaccurate and harmful misinformation about transgender people and issues. Today we are outside of the Times building to send a clear message"
THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY AND OUR ALLIES HAVE HAD ENOUGH AND WE DEMAND THE NEW YORK TIMES TAKE ACTION.

personal opinion
the old guy in DC who follows rethuglikkkans with the signs pointing out truth and facts deserves a medal

The top three WSJ editorials are screeds against Lina Khan enforcing antitrust laws, Rohit Chopra banning junk fees, and Elizabeth Warren fighting stock buybacks.
It's pretty clear that when Dems are in charge in Washington, Wall Street and Big Business go to war to defend their profits,... yet while Republicans are in charge they sit back and rake in the tax cuts
Who do your Senators and Congressmen work for?

“Controlled” release burn 🔥 is a weird kind of corporate doublespeak. This will hurt millions of people in OH/PA for years to come. But hey—at least @nscorp
did a $10 bil stock buyback to pump their shares instead of upgrading 🚊brakes. #OhioChernobyl
Haley, spouting off about fiscal responsibility, made me laugh

Dear Canadians, I love you with all my heart...please stay always dangerous 😁❤️....Matreshka forgot her place...
it was the cheapest, easiest resolution, and the damage will take years to bloom
at that point they'll be bankrupt, reorganized, bought off scientists to say the toxic damage has nothing to do with it etc etc etc
and the government allowed it

Dark sign of the times for our democracy.
🇨🇦 Governor General Mary Simon's office closed comments on all its social media accounts to counter an increase in hateful remarks and threats of violence.

Wow. I am flattered by the very generous financial contribution made by the Connecticut Forest & Park Association toward the funding of my upcoming solo exhibition.
I appreciate their support of the arts in raising public awareness of environmental resources like the New England Trail. www.xiomaro.com

In August, the citizens of Kansas turned out, and turned up, and ensured they protected bodily autonomy for all.
We celebrated them
3 months later, they voted in 5 republicans to the house and senate, to block gun control, and the radical dems
