Take action to let Massachusetts pension systems divest from the fossil fuel industry

It is critical that we pull money out of the industry that’s driving the climate crisis, but because of a state regulatory ruling, local independent retirement systems in Massachusetts cannot divest from the fossil fuel industry.

MassDivest Coalition is pushing a bill that would allow independent retirement systems to divest, and it needs your help now to get that bill out of committee.
