Alameda County divested $32 million from the construction equipment company Caterpillar on Tuesday in response to outrage by activists over the use of the equipment by Israel’s military to build settlements in Palestinian communities.

With the Board of Supervisors’ vote this week approving the move, Alameda County becomes the largest regional government in the U.S. to strip public funds from corporations that support Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian territories of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank as part of a new effort to craft an ethical investment policy.
