Coal Mining Giants: Stop the Abuses in Colombia
Tell coal mining giants that people and the environment are more precious than corporate profits!
Workers and communities in Colombia call on you to take action and demand that three mining giants, Drummond Coal, Goldman Sachs and Cerrejon, abide by international and Colombian laws.
Keeping the pressure on GM
In the wake of a national day of action, GM workers suspend their hunger strike as a good faith gesture. We hope a solution will come soon for these workers seeking justice.
Stop Mining Company's Land Grab in Colombia
In recent weeks, a notice was hung at a town hall advising the Afro-Colombian community of Roche that their land would be expropriated so that Cerrejón—one of the world´s largest open-pit coal mines—could expand its operations. Take action now to stop this expropriation.
Victory for Martha!
Five years ago, members of the U.S.-backed Colombian army killed Jose Giraldo, an innocent farmer. His daughter Martha risked her life seeking justice. Her risk has finally paid off.
Support the TRADE Act
The TRADE Act would renegotiate NAFTA and CAFTA. It's gaining ground in Congress and needs your support.
Tell Congress to Stop Displacing Colombians
Nearly 5 million Colombians have been displaced. Yet, our government continues to send more in military aid than in humanitarian aid to Colombia, assisting the perpetrators more than the victims. Help us inundate Congress with calls and emails for policies that would alleviate, not exacerbate, Colombia's crisis.
