TELL CONGRESS: Musk is now worth $400 billion. His net worth grew $200
billion just this year as he dumped money into a pro-Trump super PAC. The
wealthiest man in America shouldn’t be in charge of federal spending cuts
that will hurt everyday Americans. Sign the petition: Stop Musk’s
devastating DOGE cuts!

Hi,

Elon Musk just became the first person to surpass $400 billion in net
worth.^1 The richest man in the world should not be in charge of
devastating spending cuts that will hurt everyday Americans.

As head of Trump’s new “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE), Musk
will get to slash Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, veteran’s benefits,
public education, and so much more — all while he’s on pace to become the
world’s first trillionaire.^2 The rich will get richer while everyone else
suffers unless Congress stops this reckless right-wing project.

Social Security, Medicare, and other critical government programs.

Musk created and funded a super PAC in support of Donald Trump. And Musk’s
net worth roughly DOUBLED this year.^3

He is promising to create “hardship” for people through his spending
cuts^4 — but not hardship for everyone. Millionaires and billionaires
won’t suffer, but working people, seniors reliant on the social safety
net, public school teachers, people on Medicaid, and so many others will
experience hardship.

Musk should not have so much power in our political system and Congress
must stop his dangerous reign at DOGE.

“Department of Government Efficiency.”

Thanks for taking action,
