John Schroder on Energy & Oil

Allow oil and gas sectors to lead the energy transformation

In an interview, Schroder, a longtime former state representative who has described his efforts as a "crusade" against ESG, said his push represented a stand for Louisiana's economy, and wasn't calibrated for political gain. He said he wasn't "against the environment" either. Instead, he said massive corporations like BlackRock are trying to "force our behavior based on their politics."

"Those who live in Louisiana are abundantly aware of the environmental issues our state faces," Schroder said in an email. "I am for allowing the energy and oil and gas sectors to lead the energy transformation. They don't need financial firms to tell them what to do. Let them lead the way."
