U.S. Transhumanist Party and U.S. Pirate Party

Editor’s Note: The following are the Bylaws that have been jointly arrived at through discussions between the leadership of the U.S. Transhumanist Party and U.S. Pirate Party during 2024-2025.

To see recordings of many of these conversations, watch the U.S. Pirate Party meetings of December 15, 2024, March 30, 2025, and  June 29, 2025, where U.S. Transhumanist Party representatives participated, as well as the USTP’s Virtual Enlightenment Salons with representatives of the U.S. Pirate Party, its current Captain Mitch Davilo (December 15, 2024) and previous Captain Drew Bingaman (June 29, 2025). 

The major implication of entering into the All Hands for a Free Future coalition with the U.S. Pirate Party will be the cross-endorsement by the two parties of one another’s candidates for non-Presidential governmental offices in the United States through June 2029, with the option of renewing the c0alition for a four-year term thereafter and the possibility of fielding a jointly endorsed U.S. Presidential candidate in 2032. The U.S. Transhumanist Party and U.S. Pirate Party will, however, be anticipated to field their own distinct U.S. Presidential candidates in 2028. 
 
These Bylaws are presently being provided for U.S. Transhumanist Party members to deliberate and vote upon as the final step in their adoption. Because the language was negotiated directly with the U.S. Pirate Party, the USTP members are being given the options to vote “Yes”, “No”, or “Abstain” on the proposed Bylaws as a singular document. Official ballots have been e-mailed separately to USTP members to the e-mail addresses within our records.
