I want to particularly hammer on the Amazon point, as _all_ big tech at this point is very problematic, but Amazon's main source of profit is AWS and the Federal government is their largest contract.
If you can get your company to switch to a competitor (yes, even GCP or Azure), then you can message why you're switching from and to.

@raiderrobert I switched from AWS to Scaleway last year. Scaleway is a French company (a big bonus for those of us in Europe), and has a lot of compatibility with AWS. All my S3 scripts just converted across by changing the URLs, and setting up instances worked the same way. It's only my personal server and data though, nothing that AWS will notice.
