We're close to victory. To win we need you to keep up the pressure!? ? ? ? BANK OF AMERICA IS THE LAST BIG BANK CONSIDERING FINANCING DRILLING IN THE ARCTIC!

Friend, we haven't seen you take action yet ? can you please act now to stop drilling in the Arctic Refuge? Citigroup and Morgan Stanley are the latest banks to announce they will no longer fund drilling in Alaska's Arctic Refuge ? an area sacred to the Indigenous Gwich'in people ? but there's still one big bank putting the Arctic Refuge at risk.

Be one of the 2,000 people we need today to tell Bank of America: No drilling in the Arctic Refuge ? [link removed] ? SIGN NOW [link removed] ? ? ? ? ? Friend ? Thousands of LCV supporters like you are speaking out against Arctic drilling, and big banks are listening! Citigroup and Morgan Stanley have announced they will no longer finance oil and gas exploration, development, and production projects in the Arctic.

They're joining J.P. Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo, and Goldman Sachs ? who all see that drilling projects in the Arctic aren't worth the risk to the planet and Indigenous communities. That means five out of six of the largest banks in the country have signed on, but we can't stop here: Bank of America has still not backed away from drilling. If just one bank decides to finance drilling projects, we could lose the battle to protect the Arctic Refuge and the ecosystem the Gwich'in people rely on.

With the Trump administration eager to find any way to prop up the struggling oil and gas industry, the threat of restrictions loosening in the Arctic ? and drilling projects starting up ? is real. We just learned that Republicans are even threatening to mount their own campaign to pressure banks to finance Arctic drilling. That's why we need you with us right now.

There's still time to make a difference ? will you be one of the 2,000 people we need to sign today and tell Bank of America to not finance any Arctic drilling? [link removed]

This fight is a big one for all of us at LCV because we're working in solidarity with the Gwich'in people, whose way of life is at stake. They call the Arctic Refuge the "Sacred Place Where Life Begins," because their culture, traditions, and community are deeply tied to the Coastal Plain within the Refuge. Opening it up to any fossil fuel extraction would be disastrous.

Our campaign is working. Banks are hearing from LCV supporters like you that investing your money into Arctic drilling isn't worth the risk. We could shut down this project for good if enough banks pull out. But that will only happen if we turn up the pressure on Bank of America ? one of the last big banks who could still provide funding right now.

Please, add your name now to help us reach our goal of 2,000 more signatures by tomorrow ? [link removed]

It's hard to believe that Arctic drilling is even an option right now: We should be shifting to a clean and just energy economy, not doubling down on fossil fuels. What we do now will determine whether or not we protect the Arctic Refuge for generations to come ? and it's essential we do whatever we can to stop the Trump administration from putting Indigenous communities and our climate at risk.

If one bank is pressured by pro-polluter Republicans into financing Arctic drilling ? with our money ? it could be disastrous. We can't stand by while any bank disregards Indigenous rights and destroys our climate.

Sign now: Urge Bank of America to divest from funding the permanent destruction of the Arctic Refuge ? [link removed]

These actions make a real difference: We're seeing that when thousands of us come together, it's possible to force banks like Citigroup and Morgan Stanley to stop funding drilling projects that would cause irreparable harm to native communities and the climate.

I know we can keep up this fight and protect this vital ecosystem and the Gwich'in people's way of life. Thank you for powering this victory and more in the future.
