New Democratic bill targets Elon Musk

A veteran House Democrat is introducing new legislation to respond to billionaire Trump ally Elon Musk’s overhaul of the federal government: Rep. Mark Pocan (D-Wis.) on Wednesday rolled out the Eliminate Looting of Our Nation by Mitigating Unethical State Kleptocracy (ELON MUSK) Act, which would ban “special” government employees like Musk from having federal contract.

“No government employee, ‘Special’ or not, should have any financial interest in who the government does business with,” Pocan said. “Elon Musk is the poster child for this type of potential abuse. After more than $20 billion in federal contracts, there’s no way Musk can be objective in what he’s doing.” Musk holds major federal contracts through his companies including SpaceX and Starlink.

It’s the latest example of Hill Democrats turning Musk into an target of their opposition in President Donald Trump’s administration.

Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency effort prompted top House and Senate Democrats to also introduce a bill Tuesday to block “unlawful access” to the Treasury Department payment system that Musk and his allies recently gained access to. That bill is also likely to go nowhere in the GOP-controlled Congress.
