ESG investing, or politically motivated investing that punishes companies that do not bow to woke priorities, has seen a massive backlash in the past 6 years. 5 states have banned the practice, and many more states have raised anti-trust concerns over the abuse of taxpayer dollars by Blackrock and other ESG-focused investing firms. Texas banned the practice itself in 2021 by passing Senate Bill 3.

But the fight is far from over. Investing firms and Wall Street have dug their heels in, and a pending fight looms over the Biden Administration rule to allow retirement funds to engage in woke investing practices.

Please join TPPF’s Chuck DeVore, along with David Bahnsen, Daniel Cameron, U.S. Congressman Dan Crenshaw, and former Texas Rep. Jason Isaac as they discuss the future fight over ESG investing at the federal level, as well as how this issue will affect American politics in 2024 and beyond.

This event is in-person only at TPPF, and complimentary lunch will be provided for attendees.
