Thank you, Herb. As I recall, there was at least one bill proposed during this past legislative session in Arizona which would have constrained the Arizona State Retirement System from investing according to the ESG guidelines in your first example. Not sure if it failed, or if it passed both houses, and was then vetoed by the governor, but it did not fly. I participate in Civic Engagement Beyond Voting, otherwise I am not sure if I would have heard about it. I find it disgraceful that ALEC is determined to flout the current state of affairs in business and government accountability, which could, if followed, create admirable success in terms of environmental and social progress for all of us voters. Also, I was nor aware of the convention of states information from Article 5 of the Constitution. Thank you for sharing and keeping us informed of the increasingly despicable efforts of conservative minority groups to influence laws that will affect all citizens. Damn bastards.
