Condemn Musk's undemocratic takeover of government systems

To: Sen. Hagerty, Rep. Green, Sen. Blackburn

From: A constituent in Nashville, TN

February 5

Elon Musk's unilateral actions to seize control over crucial government systems and data are a dire threat to our democracy. His installation of loyalists in key agencies like the Office of Personnel Management and General Services Administration, granting them access to highly sensitive information on federal employees and infrastructure, is deeply alarming. Equally concerning is Musk obtaining the ability to monitor and block $6 trillion in government payments through accessing Treasury disbursement systems. As an unelected billionaire with disturbing authoritarian tendencies, Musk wields this power without any accountability or oversight from the public he is supposed to serve. His contempt for democratic norms is evident from his gutting of Twitter's workforce after his hostile takeover. We cannot allow an oligarch's whims to compromise the operations and security of the entire federal government. I urge you to use your full authority to condemn and impede Musk's anti-democratic power grab. Investigate his unlawful activities, curtail his operatives' access to critical systems, and take whatever measures are necessary to protect our institutions from this egregious overreach. We must stand firm against any attempt by the rich and privileged to undermine our republic's foundations.
