A Win for Socially Responsible Investors!


Exxon Mobil said on Thursday it ended its association with the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), a nonprofit organization of conservative state legislators and private sector representatives who draft and share model state-level legislation for distribution among state governments in the United States. ALEC is known for its  extreme positions on climate, environment, guns and labor. The Sisters of St. Agnes co-filed a resolution in December 2017, addressing Exxon Mobil’s membership in ALEC and other lobbying activity.
