U.S (NATIVE ORGANIZERS ALLIANCE ACTION FUND): The BIDEN administration must Stay firm against corporate lobbyists.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Friend, 

 

Tribal communities need resources -- including investment in infrastructure to respond to climate-related disasters like flooding, and to remediate land and water that’s been damaged by fossil fuel extraction.  

Extractive industries have taken profits from our lands and waters, and left devastation. If we can make corporations pay their fair share, we can distribute those funds to Tribes to implement traditional and sustainable ways of protecting our land, water, and climate.  

Major corporations rarely pay their fair share of federal taxes, but President Biden recently signed into law a new 15% minimum tax on billion-dollar corporations, which would generate many billions of dollars that could be reinvested into communities.

Right now, the Biden administration is finalizing plans to implement this new tax on corporations, but lobbyists representing major corporations are pressuring Congress and the Treasury Department to maintain tax loopholes.

Sign now to tell the Biden administration: Stay firm against corporate lobbyists. Tax billion-dollar corporations, so all communities and Tribes can get much-needed resources.

SIGN NOW

Here at Native Organizers Alliance, we’re building grassroots political power and distributing resources to restore Indigenous peoples’ sovereign right to co-manage our lands, waters, and air in accordance with traditional Native teachings and values.

For example, we’re working with the Yankton Sioux Tribe and a traditional society of grandmothers in South Dakota, supporting community leaders that are creating a new model of co-management of the Missouri River Basin.

Indigenous people are the original conservationists. Our ancestors have passed down the ways that best protect our earth for generations, but we need resources to implement these solutions.

Making corporations pay their fair share in taxes (and redistributing those funds to Native communities) is a good first step.

Please add your name to urge the Biden administration to stay firm against corporate lobbyists and to follow through with the plan to tax billion-dollar corporations. This could open up many billions of dollars for Native and all communities.

Hawwih (thank you in Caddo),

 

Judith LeBlanc (Caddo)
Executive Director.
