Taking Action: Dutch Farmers Harness Action to Win Big
As TNA Senior Editor William F. Jasper presented in this issue’s cover story, the craze of ESG seemed to be building since the introduction of “woke” investing began a few years ago. However, because of a Biden-era federal rule encouraging retirement fund managers to use ESG, states are pushing back. States created the federal government with limited powers, leaving the vast majority of governing powers to the states and the people.
Whenever there is a federal action in an area in which the federal government has not been granted power by the Constitution, the states are duty-bound to nullify the action. That nullification can come in a variety of forms, including taking legislative action against the usurpation or merely doing nothing to comply with the stated federal action.

In the name of achieving sustainable development goals enshrined in the United Nations’ Agenda 2030, up to a third of these farmers faced going out of business. The government’s crazed actions to reduce nitrogen emissions lit a proverbial fire under farmers and their many supporters.
