John,

Elon Musk’s takeover of the Treasury’s federal payment system is a dangerous invasion of the privacy of every American.

That’s why I’ve joined with House Democrats to introduce the Taxpayer Data Protection Act —legislation to stop Musk’s unlawful interference and protect your personal financial information. We need just three House Republicans to side with the American people instead of Elon Musk in order to pass this critical bill.

But we need your help to spread awareness, and make enough noise to get it across the finish line. Can you chip in today to help us fight back and protect your privacy?

The Taxpayer Data Protection Act will:

• Protect the nation’s payment system from reckless and unlawful interference.
• Ensure that anyone accessing the system:
  • Has lawful authorization
  • Has a reliable track record of professional service
  • Has the necessary security clearance
  • Has made an ethics commitment and has no conflicts of interest
  • Has appropriate cyber security training
• Ensure that anyone who accesses the federal government’s central payment system with a personal financial conflict faces criminal penalties.
• Ensure that Congress and the public have notice of any unauthorized access and an assessment of any cyber and national security risks or interference with federal payments.
