Fox News: Red state treasurer reveals why state financial officers have 'obligation' to combat ESG, DEI
Red state treasurer reveals why state financial officers have 'obligation' to combat ESG, DEI
Utah State Treasurer Marlo Oaks emphasizes the need to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria from investment practices. He argues that these frameworks compromise fiduciary duties, potentially harming the financial interests of public servants relying on state pensions.

Oaks warns that prioritizing social agendas over financial returns can lead to detrimental outcomes for companies and their shareholders. He cites examples of firms like Target and Bud Light, which have suffered financially after adopting DEI policies. The focus, he insists, should remain on meritocracy and fiduciary responsibility.

Smartmatic's attorney contends that the court's ruling allows Fox to misrepresent the situation while maintaining that its claims are justified.
