Around the world, activists like you are pushing back against corporations’
ISDS trade attacks on climate initiatives and other
democratically-enacted public interest policies. Join us this month to hear
some exciting updates from the global fight against ISDS!

We'll be joined by Melanie Foley of Public Citizen's Global Trade Watch,
sharing inspiring lessons from Honduras's recent ISDS withdrawal decision
and other recent wins across the globe. We'll also hear report backs from
our cross-border day of action against Ruby River’s anti-climate ISDS case,
and share ways that you can help the campaign to end ISDS in the coming
weeks.

As a reminder, Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) is a mechanism
written into many older trade and investment agreements that allows individual
corporations to challenge laws, regulations, permitting decisions and even
court decisions that they view as a violation of their supposed trade
agreement rights.  These ISDS suits completely circumvent the U.S. judicial
system and any other countries’ judicial system, and instead are heard
before private tribunals empowered to award millions and even billions of
dollars in taxpayer money as damages.  The ISDS system is an obstacle to
robust climate action and an affront to democracy.
