The Intercept: “New York Comptroller’s Trip to Israel Raised Ethical Concerns, State Commission Said.”

For The Intercept, Noah Hurowitz reports on New York Comptroller Tom DiNapoli’s investment of NY pension and investment funds in Israel Bonds — an investment vehicle that has become an issue in his primary race — and his 2024 visit to Israel sponsored by a group with ties to Israel Bonds amid Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

“Officials like Comptroller DiNapoli are responsible for the safeguarding of pension funds through strategic investing that prioritizes the needs of public sector workers and retirees.
