Idaho’s U.S. Senators joined others, including Senators from many other western states, in introducing the Food and Energy Security Act, which would prohibit the Biden Administration from forcing its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) agenda onto the American economy. Specifically, the bill would require federal financial regulators to estimate the impact of their rules on businesses involved in the agriculture or energy supply chains. If any rules are estimated to drive up food, energy or gas prices, the regulators would then be prohibited from implementing the rules during times of high inflation.
