Fires are still raging in the Amazon even though the news has largely faded from the headlines. They threaten the most biodiverse rainforest on earth and the indigenous peoples who call it home.
But only a few companies have taken any action to address their role in the crisis, and the Wall Street giants investing in these companies still refuse to hold them accountable.
Two members of Congress, Rep. Rashida Tlaib and Rep. Chuy García, are trying to get as many of their colleagues in the House as possible to sign onto a letter rebuking these financial institution CEOs for their complicity in Amazon destruction.

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro continues to pursue massive rollbacks of environmental and indigenous rights protections, making fires and deforestation even more likely.

Email your representative today to sign this hard-hitting letter to the investors profiting from Amazon destruction!
