Restore democratic norms, uphold rule of law

To: Sen. Schiff, Sen. Padilla

From: A constituent in Lincoln, CA

February 5

The recent actions of Elon Musk within the federal government raise significant concerns about the erosion of democratic norms and the rule of law. Allowing an unelected private citizen to wield influence and authority over government agencies sets a dangerous precedent that undermines accountability and threatens the separation of powers enshrined in the Constitution. Musk's apparent role as a "vigilante" operating at the behest of the president subverts established processes and checks on executive power. This extralegal arrangement lacks transparency, oversight, and any clear delineation of his duties or parameters. Such unchecked power in the hands of a single individual is antithetical to the principles of a democratic society governed by laws, not the whims of individuals. I urge you to take immediate action to rectify this untenable situation. The American people deserve a government that operates within the confines of the law and respects the institutions that safeguard our democracy. Allowing Musk's unilateral actions to continue will only further erode public trust and faith in the integrity of our system of government.
