Jason Isaac, Director of Life:Powered, a national initiative of the Texas Public Policy Foundation to raise America’s energy IQ, joined Jason Spiess to talk about how Texas became the first state to break through on the ESG Narrative allowing fossil fuels to have a seat at the table.
“We were the first state to actually get it passed and we are currently working and helping educate policy makers in other states around the country,” Isaac said. “It’s great because the leftist environmentalist climate cult media is starting to write about this and their alarm sensors are up because we got this done in Texas.”
Isaac continues explaining the difference between Texas and states who tried but failed in passing similar legislation. He also explained how municipalities and the state are tied to companies like BlackRock and Bank of the West.
“We found out it’s sitting in some with Bank of the West and in 2018 Bank of the West came out and said they were going to start divesting and not making funds available companies that are investing in fossil fuels,” Isaac said. “(Wyoming) Governor Mark Gordan who was then the Treasurer of Wyoming said we are going to pull all our funds out of Bank of the West accounts. And now Mark’s the Governor of Wyoming and they are continuing that.”
