TOMORROW WE ARE STRIKING FOR
CLIMATE REPARATIONS AND JUSTICE!
Be a part of the Global Climate  Strike: Chicago! You'll be joining a coalition of more than a dozen organizations working for climate justice and a sustainable future for all!
We still have a few seats on the Milwaukee bus. There's only a few hours left to catch the 8:30am Milwaukee Bus to Chicago, sign up HERE ASAP!
Here's a bit of information about the event:
- We'll be starting at Pritzker Park (310 S State St) in downtown Chicago. Start assembling at 10:30 AM, and the march will depart at 11 AM. Estimated end time: 1 PM.
- March to the Federal Reserve (230 S La Salle St)
- March to Chase Tower (10 S Dearborn St)
- March to Kluczynski Federal Building (230 S Dearborn St)
- Return to Pritzker Park
- Entire length of march: just over 1 mile
- If you aren't able to join the full march, you're welcome to meet us at any of the locations! We'll also need a couple of people willing to stay at Pritzker Park to keep an eye on anything we leave behind temporarily.
- We will have snacks and some water - but we encourage you to bring your own reusable water bottles!!!
- Please do your best to stay on the sidewalks.
- If you would like reimbursement for gas and parking or public transportation, please let the leader of your group know after the event! If you aren't affiliated with a group or don't know who to contact, email me after the event.
- Feel free to bring your own signs or props! Costumes welcome as well!
- Invite your friends, families, and connections - we want this to be as inclusive an event as possible.

According to data from Rainforest Action Network, [JPMorgan Chase] is the largest global banker of Gazprom, the largest publicly listed natural gas company in the world and the largest company in Russia by revenue.
Between 2016 and 2020, the group says, the firm provided the company with roughly $3.5 billion in financing.
Aside from JPMorgan, no other major U.S. banks were in the top 10.
