An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Elon musk should not have access to our payment systems!

19 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

I strongly urge caution against providing Elon Musk's team unfettered access to the federal payment system that handles financial transactions across the government. This move raises serious concerns over data privacy and security of Americans' sensitive financial information. Granting outsiders the ability to monitor and potentially restrict legitimate payments authorized by Congress sets a dangerous precedent that undermines democratic processes. Financial systems dealing with taxpayer money must have robust safeguards and oversight to prevent misuse or exploitation. I request an immediate review of this decision and implementation of stringent controls to protect the integrity of the payment system and citizens' confidential data. Transparency on the scope of access granted and measures to mitigate risks is paramount. Protecting Americans' financial details from unauthorized surveillance or interference should be the top priority.
