Texas School Fund Yanks $8.5 Billion from BlackRock Over ESG Investing

By Carole Hornsby Haynes March 21, 2024 

Texans are fighting back against against theEnvironmental Social Governance (ESG) politically-motivated movement by yanking $8.5 billion of Texas Permanent School Fund (PSF) assets from global asset manager BlackRock. 

Major fund managers including BlackRock, State Street, and Vanguard have colluded to phase out Texas’ energy production within the next 15 years. This will have a dramatic impact on Texas public education because the PSF is primarily funded by oil and gas royalties.

And parents are winning. It seems the Left has woefully underestimated the Momma Bear instinct to protect their young.

In an article penned several years ago, “Why State Bans and Flipping School Boards Won’t Stop Critical Race Theory,” I predicted that powerful teachers’ unions and emboldened teachers would ignore the laws while school boards with their limited authority would not effect change. I predicted the use of legislation to shut down Critical Race Theory would follow a path similar to that of Common Core with defiance of the law and rebranding. Time has proven me right.

Florida is considered a conservative state yet it has been aggressively removing monuments, both Confederate and non-Confederate, for years. Jacksonville has wasted no time in canceling its heritage with the removal of several monuments since 2016, joined by St. Petersburg, Orlando, Fort Myers, Ocala, Daytona Beach, Pensacola, Gainesville, and Lakeland. A bill (SB 1122) pending in the Florida Senate could end this desecration of the state’s historical monuments and memorials to its storied past.
