Congratulations to @EarthRightsIntl on your landmark @scotus win in Jam v. @IFC_org - paving the way for more #accountable institutions and #justice for all. #notabovethelaw #tatamundra #SCOTUS
SCOTUS agreed not only with @EarthRightsIntl, but with each other (7-1)-- that @WorldBank and @IFC_org are NOT above the law! How often does that happen? And how often do poor villagers face off against a bank, and win? Today, they did.
This is historic and has repercussions across the world! Congratulations to the MAAS, ERI, and everyone involved.
