Stop Confirming Trump's Appointments Until Musk Is Stopped

To: Sen. Slotkin, Sen. Peters

From: A verified voter in Grand Rapids, MI

February 5

The idea of confirming nominees while Elon Musk has extensive access to government agencies and computer systems presents a clear and present danger to the principles of fair governance and national security. It is deeply concerning to proceed with such confirmations amidst the implications that arise from potential conflicts of interest, privacy breaches, and undue influence over decision-making processes. Musk's dual role as a private entrepreneur with vested interests in technology and space exploration, coupled with his involvement in critical government functions, poses a substantial risk of blending corporate ambitions with public policies. This entanglement is troubling for the integrity of democratic institutions and the safeguarding of sensitive governmental information. The influence wielded by someone in Musk's position could potentially compromise the impartiality expected from public servants and nominees. Decisions impacting millions of citizens should be made with utmost transparency and without the shadow of undue influence from individuals who stand to gain financially or strategically. Therefore, it is imperative to withhold the confirmation of nominees associated with Trump until robust safeguards are in place to ensure that government operations remain insulated from the sway of powerful external figures like Elon Musk. The sanctity of our democratic processes and the security of our nation's information must be upheld as non-negotiable priorities.
