A resolution asking *Fidelity* mutual funds to adopt procedures to screen out investments in companies that deal with the government of Sudan received almost 30 percent support at two of the funds, a Fidelity spokesman confirmed.The divestment proposal won 27 percent support at Fidelity’s *Capital and Income Fund*, and 28 percent at the *Select Health Care Portfolio Fund*. Shareholders at both funds voted on the resolution, submitted by non-profit group *Investors Against Genocide* (IAG), at meetings on March 19. The two funds’ meetings were the first at which the proposal has been voted so far this year. IAG has sponsored the resolution at 20 Fidelity funds, 20 *Vanguard* mutual funds, and plans to file at “hundreds of others,” Eric Cohen, IAG chairman, said at a press conference the day of the meetings.
