A coalition of 19 state attorneys general (AGs) from across the country launched a formal investigation into six major U.S. banks, citing legal concerns about banks’ “ESG” investing and their involvement with a U.N. alliance fighting carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.

The banks “appear to be colluding with the U.N. to destroy American companies" and undermine the nation’s best interests, one of the AGs told The Epoch Times in an emailed statement.
