<P>Myanmar's military has staged a coup and is murdering hundreds of
peaceful protesters, including children -- <STRONG>and they're
doing it with billions in support from oil and gas companies like
Total and Chevron. </STRONG></P>
<P>Oil and gas is the government's top funder. So while the US, UK,
and others place sanctions on the military, these ruthless Generals
will be unfazed as long as they have the support of energy
giants. </P>
<P>Activists in Myanmar are urgently calling on the companies to end
their support to the military --<STRONG> let's show that people all
around the world are backing them up: </STRONG></P>

and Chevron: stop supporting the bloodbath in Myanmar</A></P>
<P>Oil and gas contribute $1.1 billion a year to the
now-military-controlled government. Activists are calling on
companies to stop these payments and put the contributions into
a conditional account, to be released when democracy is restored. We
know this is feasible -- it's been done before during other global
conflicts. <STRONG>Total and Chevron could suspend direct
payments to the military, but only if there's enough pressure to do
so. </STRONG></P>
<P>The military is proudly proclaiming they aren't impacted by
sanctions by the US, UK, and EU. That's not only because of the
continued support of China, Singapore, and others -- <STRONG>Total
paid the government at least $412 million in 2019, making them
possibly the largest single backer out there.</STRONG></P>
<P>If corporations don't pull their funding, government sanctions
will amount to nothing. <STRONG>Let's help activists in Myanmar pull
the plug on the military's corporate backers:</STRONG></P>

<P>We know companies like Total are sensitive to pressure. It's why
they hire lobbyists and PR firms in every corner of the world to
control their reputations. <STRONG>But thousands of SumOfUs members
can’t be silenced, and we will pull out all the stops to make sure
execs hear our call.</STRONG></P><IMG alt=""
