This is the letter I sent.
If Elon Musk is now a government employee, he is subject to conflicts of interest law.
Requirements he seems to be completely ignoring. The American people deserve answers and accountability.
Instead... more Trump purges.
This morning, I sent a letter to the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) regarding Elon Musk’s potential conflicts of interest.
Within minutes, the White House confirmed receipt.

The tragic result of Trump’s “America Last” policy.
Trump's federal funding freeze has stopped the hiring of thousands of essential, seasonal firefighters.

I'm demanding answers from the Trump administration ASAP.
They must reverse this freeze.
It’s been a crazy week. Here’s something really important that you may have missed:

The moment we say it's ok to violate the law to shut down one agency – we say it's ok to violate the law to shut down anything.
