An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Musk’s Lies Undermine Social Security — Act Now

29 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

I am writing to express deep concern over Elon Musk’s recent dissemination of misinformation regarding Social Security. During a recent Oval Office event, Musk baselessly claimed that individuals aged 150 years are receiving Social Security benefits, a statement that lacks any factual foundation. Such unfounded assertions not only mislead the public but also undermine confidence in essential social programs. Given Musk’s significant influence and his current role within the federal government, it is imperative that he be held accountable for spreading false information. I urge you to take immediate action by: 1. Summoning Elon Musk to testify before Congress to provide evidence supporting his claims or to publicly retract them. 2. Ensuring that Musk does not have control over or access to the administration of Social Security benefits, thereby safeguarding the integrity of this vital program. Allowing misinformation to go unchecked sets a dangerous precedent and jeopardizes the well-being of countless Americans who rely on Social Security. It is crucial that our leaders uphold the truth and protect the programs that serve our citizens.
