On May 25, dozens of local, national, and international community leaders and advocates from and for communities harmed by Chevron's operations from Angola, Ecuador, Indonesia, Nigeria, Alaska, Texas, and more will attend the company's annual shareholder meeting in San Ramon, California while supporters rally outside to demand that Chevron agree to change its ways. This press conference will kick off that event.

At the conference, this year's True Cost of Chevron report will be released. Embargoed until May 24, the report includes accounts by more than 40 authors – led by those on the front lines of Chevron's operations – recording egregious corporate behavior in locations as diverse as California, Burma, Colombia, Ecuador, Kazakhstan, Nigeria, the Philippines and the U.S. Gulf Coast, including new sections detailing Chevron's pursuit of ever-riskier and ever-deeper offshore projects in the South China Sea, the North Sea, and the Canadian Arctic and its role in the Deepwater Horizon disaster. The report also profiles the historic victory and ongoingbattle over Chevron's crimes in Ecuador.

They'll come from Angola, Alaska, Ecuador, Nigeria, Indonesia, Canada, Texas, California, and more. They will all have two things in common: they all come from communities that have suffered the dire impacts of Chevron's reckless pursuit of profits, and they're all fighting back.

Join us for a colorful and fun rally outside Chevron's headquarters in support of human rights, environmental, economic and climate justice, and more!
