The Issue

 

Please pass The Forest Act and make it become U.S. law.  The Amazon Rainforest is dying from illegal deforestation and climate change.  Corporations and agribusinesses break the law and cut down trees in the Amazon Rainforest for logging, mining, drilling, cattle ranching, soy, cotton, and other products.  The Forest Act will require corporations to prove that their products (and the supply chain for their products) do not come from newly deforested areas in the Amazon Rainforest and other Rainforests.  If they can't prove it, they won't be able to import their products or bring them  into the U.S.  If they can't bring their products into the U.S., they can't sell them here.  The goal is to stop corporations from cutting down forests in the Amazon Rainforest and other Rainforests or old growth forests.  Here is the link to the actual Bill in Congress that needs to be passed to become law.  https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-bill/3371
