Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) and Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) are telling 51 of the nation’s top law firms that they should warn their clients to “lawyer up” if they enter environment, social and governance (ESG) agreements that create “climate cartels.”

In a blunt Nov. 3 letter to the firms that was made public on Nov. 9, Blackburn and Cotton wrote that “the ESG movement attempts to weaponize corporations to reshape society in ways that Americans would never endorse at the ballot box.”
