The Stop Environmental Social Governance (ESG) and Social Credit Score Discrimination Act

This bill prohibits the Minnesota State Board of Investment from investing in or contracting with companies that boycott mining, energy production, agriculture, or commercial lumber. It requires the state board to divest from such companies (called "listed companies") by July 1, 2030, and bans state agencies from entering contracts with these companies. The bill defines "boycott" as refusing business due to a company's lack of adherence to environmental standards beyond legal requirements. It also mandates annual reports detailing affected investments and includes limited provisions against financial discrimination based on subjective criteria.
