11 States Sue BlackRock, Vanguard, State Street For Intentionally Driving Up Electric Prices
by Thomas Richard  Nov 27, 2024 
 
BlackRock Inc., Vanguard Group Inc., and State Street Corp. were sued by a group of states led by Texas for allegedly breaking antitrust law by boosting electricity prices through their investments, in the highest-profile lawsuit yet against the beleaguered ESG industry. [emphasis, links added]

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and 10 other states claim the money managers combined their market clout and membership in climate groups to pressure coal producers to cut output.


Shortages have caused Texans and residents of other states to pay higher power bills, according to the lawsuit, filed Wednesday in federal court in Texas.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
