Explanation

The preposition "to" (implied before "you and ____") requires an object pronoun. The phrase "up to" functions as a prepositional phrase requiring objective case. "them" is the correct objective case pronoun, while "they" is nominative and "I/me" are first-person pronouns that don't fit the likely context of a third-party decision.
