Elon Musk used his immense wealth and power to help elect Donald Trump. At the same time, he’s leading a company (SpaceX) that’s gaining a dangerous amount of power as a U.S. defense contractor.

If Musk has a role in the Trump admin, he may very well be “regulating” the agencies who are in charge of regulating his own companies and doling out billions of dollars of federal contracts.

Before Trump takes power, the Biden administration must cut off Elon Musk’s billions in federal defense contracts.

Since 2020, Elon Musk’s SpaceX has secured 22 space missions from the Pentagon worth $2.5 billion. Musk’s company is currently competing with other corporate giants for even more defense contracts. If given a Trump Cabinet position, Musk plans to cut government spending while in charge of “reducing government waste and needles regulation.”

Our taxpayer dollars shouldn’t be helping to enrich a man readying to entangle himself in massive conflicts of interest. End Musk’s defense contracts now!
