Americans need a real steward for our public lands. Steve Pearce, Trump’s pick to lead the BLM, isn’t one.
He opposed environmental protections and pushed to sell public lands when he was in Congress.
Our public lands are NEVER for sale. I'm a NO on his nomination.

👀 If the NYC pension boards adopt the @nyccomptroller.bsky.social recommendations and move BlackRock's $42B mandate to other asset managers, it could be one of the most consequential climate-related actions ever taken by a pension fund in the US or anywhere in the world.
Today I’m recommending that NYC’s pension fund boards drop BlackRock and 2 other (out of 49) public markets asset managers due to inadequate decarbonization plans.
