An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Safeguard Treasury payment systems from partisan overreach

144 so far! Help us get to 250 signers!

The attempt by Elon Musk's allies to gain access to the Treasury Department's sensitive payment systems that distribute over $6 trillion annually is deeply concerning. This includes funds for Social Security, Medicare, federal employee salaries, tax refunds, and payments to government contractors and grant recipients relied upon by millions nationwide. Allowing any undue political influence over these critical systems could jeopardize their proper functioning and the timely disbursement of essential funds. A career official's recent retirement after clashing with Musk's surrogates on this issue underscores the gravity of the situation. Congress must condemn these efforts and take action to safeguard the independence and security of the Treasury's payment infrastructure from partisan agendas or overreach. The integrity of these systems is vital to preserve public trust and ensure the government can meet its financial obligations.
