An open letter to the U.S. Congress

End All Government Contracts With Palantir Technologies

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

I need you to terminate all government contracts with Palantir Technologies and block future agreements with this company. Their recently published manifesto makes clear they are incompatible with democratic governance. Palantir CEO Alex Karp and their top lawyer just released a 22-point manifesto that rejects pluralism, questions whether all cultures are equal in advancement, and calls for "undoing the postwar neutering" of Germany and Japan. They advocate abandoning volunteer military service, positioning AI weapons as inevitable, and explicitly defend billionaires like Elon Musk while dismissing ethical concerns as obstacles. This is not a company that should hold multi-billion-dollar defense and surveillance contracts. Last year, the Army made Palantir's CTO and three other company executives lieutenant colonels in the Reserves. This blurring of lines between private profit and military authority is dangerous. Palantir already runs surveillance systems in American cities and holds massive contracts with ICE. Their stock has increased 24-fold in three years while they position themselves as essential to national security. A company that openly rejects democratic pluralism and advocates for authoritarian values should not have access to our defense systems, our data, or our tax dollars. Cut them off.
