Letter to Divest in WF
Raw
gistfile1.txt
Dear <city counsil member>,
I am impressed with the leadership position that the City of Seattle recently took in unanimously enacting a local ordinance to divest in Wells Fargo because it is funding the Dakota Access Pipeline.
Please consider divesting City funds from Wells Fargo bank so that Redwood City is not supporting the Dakota Access Pipeline project. I don’t want our taxpayer dollars to be supporting this pipeline.
This controversial pipeline project threatens the environment and the native American people of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. In a world where the climate is changing due to human activity, we need to embrace investment in renewable energy, not more fossil fuel infrastructure.
Sincerely,
Peter Cornell
