We blocked Senator Joe Manchin's #DirtyDeal from being included in House NDAA — so OF COURSE he turned around & tried to include it in the Senate version 🙄 Manchin won't give up, neither will we! EDs of 45+ orgs (including S:E) sent this letter to ensure leadership stands strong.

JUST IN: We are in NYC at AIG’s HQ to demand the insurer ⛔JUST SAY NO ⛔️ to the East African Crude Oil Pipeline. The #ClimateEmergency is here, and it’s time for AIG to stop insuring fossil fuel expansion and human rights abuses. 🚨 #StopEACOP

Last week, Start:Empowerment, @Insure_Future, @RAN, and several other community members showed up outside AIG's headquarters and demanded they rule out support for EACOP -- which threatens to displace communities in Uganda & Tanzania and harm our climate!

Big insurers like AIG & Chubb need to reject the East African Crude Oil Pipeline, a proposed pipeline that would devastate communities and ecosystems in East Africa. 🌍 ⚠️ Time to stop underwriting fossil fuel expansion and put people over profit! ⏰ #StopEACOP
