Republican Representative : Divest State from Tech

What’s the deal? I have no idea what’s in the water in Florida but its producing a number of ways state elected officials can punish tech companies for twitter banning Trump. Up on deck next:  Republican Florida State Rep. Randy Fine and State Sen. Joe Gruters are calling on the state to divest “the $8 billion the state has invested in Twitter, Apple, Facebook and Google through the Florida Retirement System, which pays retirees with proceeds from the investments.”

Why should we care? Pensions divesting from the controversy du jour is an ordinary Tuesday in some states. Is it an effective tool? Or, will it come back to bite you like vampire?

How does this impact me? Chalk this up to a need for all industries to be proactive before they end up on the divestment circuit too.
