The petition to Democrats in Congress reads:
Stop the coup. Do everything in your power to stop Elon Musk and his DOGE demolition crew from gutting our government institutions. Use all the tools at your disposal to delay, disrupt, and halt all business as usual. Women, transgender people, people of color, and people with low incomes will pay the price for your inaction.
Donald Trump has enabled the richest man in the world to hijack Congress’ power to create and control our nation’s budget. Make no mistake, this is a coup orchestrated by Elon Musk and his sexist and racist broligarchs.
Democrats need to use every tool at their disposal--from filibusters to civil disobedience--to delay, disrupt, and halt business as usual. None of this is normal. An unelected citizen gutting our government institutions without congressional approval is unconstitutional.
What we’re seeing now is the birth of the newest good old boys club: a broligarchy that values profit over people and attacks women, LGBTQ+ people, immigrants, and people of color in order to protect its own power at all costs. It needs to stop: House and Senate Democrats must take immediate action to block Musk and his DOGE demolition crew from looting the Treasury and destroying our nation’s most valued institutions. Fill out the form to add your name now.
