Musk's DOGE team has been given extraordinary and unchecked power to dismantle government agencies, resulting in the termination of tens of thousands of federal workers and the loss of critical services for Americans. This overhaul, driven by vague claims of cost savings, has occurred without congressional oversight or public input. The potential conflicts of interest between DOGE's actions and Musk's business interests at companies like Tesla, SpaceX, and X are deeply concerning. I urge you to take immediate action to rein in DOGE's activities, restore proper checks and balances, and protect the integrity of our federal agencies that serve the public good. Unconstrained power in the hands of a private citizen beholden to corporate interests poses a grave threat to our democratic institutions. Please act swiftly to prevent further damage and reinstate transparency and accountability.
