Halt Musk's Unaccountable Power Grab Undermining Democracy
15 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!
The federal government's constitutional system of checks and balances is being subverted by an unelected billionaire seizing control over critical functions. Musk's chaotic dismantling of established processes without understanding them poses grave risks to the nation's foundational institutions and democratic norms. Congress has a duty to assertively investigate and put a stop to these reckless actions that undermine the rule of law. As representatives of the people, lawmakers must use their oversight powers to compel testimony from Musk and his associates, obtain documents and communications related to the purge of civil servants, and shine a light on the unilateral decisions being made. Show up in person at affected agencies to bear witness, hold public hearings, and resist the usurpation of constitutional authority. Protect expertise from being cast aside, preserve institutional knowledge, and prevent disaster by refusing to allow this unaccountable power grab to continue unchecked. The storm of constitutional violations grows more severe by the day. Complacency will only enable further erosion of the democratic foundations this nation was built upon. Congress must forcefully confront this crisis head-on through rigorous oversight, aggressive investigation, and a resolute defense of the separation of powers. The future of functional, lawful governance depends on decisive action now to halt this destructive runaway train. The American people are counting on you to uphold your oaths and safeguard the republic.
