Congresswoman Gwen Moore Statement on Billionaire Elon Musk Takeover of Executive Branch
In addition to trying to purge two million government workers and pushing for trillions in devastating cuts through his DOGE scheme, billionaire Elon Musk has expanded his power grab. He and his allies are now seeking access to sensitive information that is used to distribute Social Security and Medicare benefits, federal salaries, and tax refunds. In response, Congresswoman Moore released the following statement:
“The Elon Musk takeover of the executive branch is already causing chaos, confusion, and putting Americans’ sensitive information at risk, including their Social Security numbers and banking information. In his latest power grab, Musk sought access to payment systems that are used to distribute Social Security and Medicare benefits and tax refunds. Elon Musk has no business accessing Americans’ most sensitive information. We should all be asking why he wants it.
Billionaire Elon Musk’s power grab continues to come at the expense of the American people. Democrats will fight back any way we can.”
