ISBI Divest From Genocide!

Posted by Andy1917

Content:

On Friday, September 19, we will mobilize at the quarterly Illinois State Board of Investment (ISBI) meeting to demand:
– That the ISBI divest state worker pension funds from corporations profiting from and are complicit in the genocide in Gaza.
– That ISBI Vice-Chair and Illinois Treasurer Michael Frerichs, who has $100 million of our tax dollars actively invested in Israel Bonds, divest from Israel immediately.

TIME SUBJECT TO CHANGE. Please keep a close watch for updates.

Let’s show ISBI that Illinois workers, students, and communities will not be complicit in genocide. Together, we will hold them accountable.
