An Open Letter

To: Sen. Cruz, Pres. Trump, Rep. Weber, Sen. Cornyn

From: A verified voter in Galveston, TX

June 2, 2025

The administration's effort to compile extensive personal data on Americans through Palantir's technology raises serious privacy concerns. Centralizing disparate government databases into detailed citizen profiles could enable unwarranted surveillance and infringe on civil liberties. This surveillance dragnet appears to lack proper safeguards and oversight. I urge you to block funding for these Palantir contracts and defend citizens' right to privacy by preventing the creation of a centralized data repository that could be abused by the government. Protecting personal information from undue monitoring is crucial for preserving freedom in a democratic society.
