🗝️Join us to talk and take action in how divestment from illegal occupations can benefit Illinois residents.
In February, IL State Treasurer Michael Frerichs renewed a $15 Million investment in Israel Bonds. Less than a month later, Frerichs purchased another $10 Million in Israel Bonds. He claims the bonds “provide stable returns and are a strong investment for Illinois,” while Israel Bonds’ global credit score sits at a 3, right above “Junk” bonds, which are bonds with a high risk of default and are unstable. Israel Bonds is considered a horrible investment for Illinois and its residents. Michael Frerichs has invested over $100 Million of Illinois tax dollars into an illegal occupation. Making Illinois and every resident a direct sponsor for genocide, ethic cleansing, and displacement. However, there are ways to prevent bad investments from continuing, and that’s through divestment.
