Mother Jones - State pension fund is helping a Middle Eastern firm export Arizona's precious groundwater

"As rural Arizonans face the prospect of wells running dry, foreign firms are sucking up vast amounts of the state’s groundwater to grow hay for Saudi Arabia and other wealthy nations. Now it turns out that a key investor in this water transfer scheme is Arizona’s own employee retirement fund."

Great reporting by @MotherJones and Reveal from The Center for Investigative Reporting.
