[CNSNews.com] Florida is pulling $2 billion of assets from BlackRock, the world's largest asset management firm, because the company should be choosing investments based on its clients' best interests, and not on an environmental, social and governance (ESG) agenda, the state's attorney general explained Monday.

"Governor DeSantis (R) has been very clear: Florida is where 'woke' goes to die.' But, this is a bigger picture," AG Ashley Moody said in an interview with Fox & Friends First:

"When you have these large financial titans controlling access to capital, controlling infusion of capital, or control of corporations, using that power to social-engineer some social or ideological agenda, that's problematic.

"Look in Florida. We shut that down here. Citizens were very clear: 'We don't want these weak, woke, wackadoo policies governing our state.'"

Florida funds don't belong in "these large institutions that were doing anything other than looking at risk, return and diversification, any other sort of ideological agenda," Moody said.

"I think you're going to see Florida continue to push back until this is no longer an issue here in Florida," AG Moody said.

"Well, thank God somebody is, because Biden wants this to be part of your 401K's—that's all 50 states—and that's scary," Co-host Todd Piro warned. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
