Direct Lobbying Transparency
Overall Assessment Comment Score
Limited Amazon provides a basic but limited picture of its climate-policy lobbying. It names one specific measure it advocated for—the “full implementation of the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act,” clarifying that its engagement related only to the Act’s climate provisions. It also sets out a single method and target for that engagement, describing its use of “public statement and outreach to federal lawmakers.” Finally, it states that it supported the Act’s climate provisions, noting only “minor exceptions” concerning non-climate elements, but does not spell out any concrete policy changes or numeric objectives it sought within those provisions. Because the disclosure covers only one policy, one mechanism, and a broadly framed desired outcome, the overall transparency remains limited. 1
Lobbying Governance
Overall Assessment Comment Score
Limited Amazon reports a “public commitment or position statement to conduct our engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement,” indicating an explicit promise to guide its advocacy by Paris-aligned climate objectives; however, we found no evidence of any oversight committee or named individual reviewing these activities, no description of a monitoring or review process for its lobbying, and no details on how it governs its direct or indirect policy engagement to ensure consistency with this commitment. 1
