John,

Fast food and soda giants aren't just hiding what's in the food and drinks we consume -- they want to hide their political donations and lobbying too!

McDonald's is in 120 countries, but outside of the US it says almost nothing about how it tries to influence political decisions. That means it can spend on political campaigns, fund research, lobby to change health policy...all without anyone knowing!

A group of shareholders wants to change this across the industry -- starting with the McDonald's shareholder meeting *this Thursday*. They're asking for our help to get as many signers as possible on their petition to up the pressure on major institutional shareholders -- can you join?

These companies hold huge sway over everything from what kids eat at school, to whether essential workers get paid sick leave...or how the world's food systems can withstand a pandemic. And we know they have a TERRIBLE record on these issues.

But despite their massive influence, we can see very little of what the industry spends to steer public policy and politics.

That's why our partners at Corporate Accountability are leading the charge, calling on the world's largest food and beverage companies -- like McDonald's and soda giant Coca-Cola and Pepsi Co -- to open their books on their global political spending and activities.

Given their reach, this is a necessary and momentous step. With transparency, we have a fighting chance to curb their toxic influence. But it won't happen if we can't get as many shareholders as possible on board. Will you add your name to up the pressure and expose McDonald's political secrets worldwide?
