Official Summary

Congressional Research Service summary

No ESG at TSP Act This bill prohibits investments under the Thrift Savings Plan in mutual funds that are based on environmental criteria (e.g., emissions standards), social criteria (e.g., company diversity), political criteria (e.g., political affiliations), or corporate governance criteria that differ from the standards that currently apply under law.

Key Points

Main provisions of the bill

Prohibits the TSP from investing in mutual funds that consider environmental, social, or political factors that go beyond current legal standards.
The TSP is a retirement savings and investment plan for federal employees, including members of the military.
This would restrict the TSP's ability to invest in ESG funds, which take into account factors beyond just financial performance.
Supporters argue this protects against 'politicizing' federal retirement savings, while critics say it limits investment options.

How This Impacts Americans

Potential effects on citizens and communities

If this bill becomes law, it would affect the investment options available to the millions of federal employees and military members who have retirement savings in the TSP. They would no longer be able to choose ESG funds for their TSP investments, potentially limiting their ability to align their savings with their values and priorities.
