An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Support ELON MUSK Act to prevent conflicts of interest

22 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

As a concerned citizen, I support the introduction of the ELON MUSK Act to ban federal government contracts for Special Government Employees. This measure aims to prevent conflicts of interest and ensure transparency in government spending decisions. It is unacceptable for individuals wielding significant influence over federal expenditures to potentially steer contracts towards their own financial interests. The lack of oversight and accountability raises serious ethical concerns, especially when billions of taxpayer dollars are at stake. Just as Members of Congress and other federal employees are prohibited from receiving such contracts, the same safeguards should apply to Special Government Employees. The case of Elon Musk highlights the urgent need for this legislation. His businesses have secured over $20 billion in federal contracts, raising questions about the objectivity of his advisory role within government agencies. No individual, regardless of their wealth or influence, should have the ability to direct public funds for personal gain. Protecting the integrity of government spending and preventing corruption should be a top priority. The ELON MUSK Act represents a crucial step towards ensuring that public resources are allocated fairly and ethically, without undue influence from those with vested interests. I urge you to support this legislation and uphold the principles of transparency and accountability in government.
