On Friday, House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), along with fellow committee member Dan Bishop (R-N.C.), sent a letter to the CEO of Ceres, a climate “sustainability organization,” which appears to accuse the organization of holding back documents that the committee needs to investigate alleged collusion between Ceres (through a group known as “Climate Action 100+, which looks to make businesses take actions on so- called climate change) and American financial companies.
The letter accuses Ceres of acting “like a cartel” to ensure that companies are following environment, social, and governance (ESG)- approved business models, and the Judiciary Committee is looking into whether that alleged collusion may be running afoul of U.S. antitrust laws.
