A Call to Action Against the World Bank, International Monetary Fund and the G20


Tax the Bank

  • the IMF and World Bank do not pay any taxes on their combined yearly profits of $2 billion,
  • the IMF and World Bank do not pay taxes on their property in DC, which has a combined value of over $800 million,
  • the IMF and World Bank also do not pay sales taxes.

Call elected officials who can create the political will to force the IMF and World Bank to pay their fair share!

November 30, 1999 - Seattle

A powerful U.S. movement for economic and human rights and fair trade had its coming-out party at the WTO meetings in Seattle. A range of forces who value human and ecological dignity over corporate profits and trickle-down economics came together there. We challenged one of the most insidious tools of unaccountable profit-driven rule, the World Trade Organization, and we scored an important series of victories against some daunting odds.


September 23-26, 1999 - No Debt, No Sweat - Washington, D.C.
