AI Summary

This bill amends the law concerning environmental, social justice, or governance (ESG) scores. It clarifies the sources of information that the ESG Oversight Committee can use in regulating the inclusion of financial services providers on a list under the existing law. The bill specifies that the committee can consider a provider's certification of non-discrimination, public statements, and information published by government entities, but cannot make a determination solely based on statements or complaints by certain industries or media reports. The bill also exempts certain investments from divestment requirements under the existing law if early divestment would result in financial penalties and harm to the state.
