Minnesota Signs Divestment Bill on Darfur

This is the kind of message members of the African Union need to send to Khartoum:
“On Wednesday May 23, Gov. Tim Pawlenty signed Senate File 1075, a targeted divestment bill which will divest Minnesota’s State Board of Investment from companies that support the genocidal government of Sudan. “Minnesotans can be proud that we are taking action to help cut off the flow of money to Sudan’s military. We’re doing our part to stop the crimes and inhumanities in Darfur.â€
