PUNTA GORDA, Fla.–Gov. Ron DeSantis on July 27 said he plans to take action against the environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) movement, calling it a threat to the American economy.
“The leveraging of corporate power to impose an ideological agenda on society represents an alarming trend,” DeSantis said in a statement. “From Wall Street banks to massive asset managers and big tech companies, we have seen the corporate elite use their economic power to impose policies on the country that they could not achieve at the ballot box.”
