Albuquerque Santa Fe, NM, October 14, 2026 —
The New Mexico Attorney General’s office is investigating allegations that workers canvassing for Oracle’s Project Jupiter faced pressure to generate positive public comments about the project. Oracle is cooperating with the investigation and conducting its own internal review.
A canvasser alleged that workers were given daily quotas for positive comments and that organizers discouraged negative or neutral feedback. The allegations raise the possibility that some submissions could have been fraudulent, but the information available does not establish that any comments were fabricated or that wrongdoing occurred.
The investigation’s findings may affect Project Jupiter’s air permit process and public trust, according to the summary of the dispute. No conclusion from the attorney general’s office or Oracle’s internal review was provided.
Details about when the alleged conduct occurred, how many workers or public comments may have been involved, and what specific actions are under review were not provided. The summary also does not identify the canvasser or describe the project’s location beyond New Mexico.
Oracle’s cooperation and internal review are ongoing, while the attorney general’s office examines the claims. The outcome of either review, and any effect on the air permit process, remains unknown.
