Keep Elon out of the treasury

To: Sen. Scott, Sen. Moody, Rep. Webster

From: A constituent in Apopka, FL

February 2, 2025

I am writing to express my deep concern over Elon Musk’s access to the US Treasury payment system, which manages $6 trillion annually in Social Security, Medicare, military salaries, federal benefits, grants, and contractor payments. This system also contains sensitive tax records of millions of Americans, including myself and my family. Elon Musk was not elected by the people. He does not answer to voters. Yet, he now has DIRECT ACCESS to one of the most critical financial infrastructures of our government. That is NOT democracy—it is an oligarchy. Allowing a billionaire with vast political influence and a history of erratic decision making to control or even glimpse the financial backbone of our nation is unacceptable. Americans count on all of you to protect our democracy from the dangerous overreach of unelected billionaires. This is not just about financial security—it is about preserving the integrity of our government and ensuring that power remains with the people, not the ultra-wealthy elite. I urge you to take immediate action to block Elon Musk’s access to the treasury payment system and ensure that our tax records, Social Security payments, and federal financial operations remain under the control of accountable public officials—not a private billionaire. What steps will you take to address this urgent issue?
