Amazon Resolution: 2025 Proxy Season
In the 2025 proxy season, Majority Action worked with Amazon Employees for Climate Justice (AECJ) to lead an impactful climate shareholder resolution at Amazon. Calling on the company to report on how it will meet its climate commitments given its massive data center expansion plans, the proposal garnered support from 20% of shareholders, making it one of the season's most successful environmental resolutions and clearly demonstrating investors' concern about this issue.
