Musk created America PAC during the 2024 election campaign season. The PAC’s stated purpose is to support the “key values” of a fair justice system, free speech, safe cities, secure borders, self-protection, and sensible spending. During the 2024 presidential election, the PAC paid volunteers for each voter who signed a petition supporting the First and Second Amendments. The PAC also awarded $1 million to several volunteers collecting petition signatures.
America PAC came under fire for several reasons during and after the election. Democrats throughout the country alleged that Musk’s PAC was illegal and called for legal action against it and its shutdown. After the election, the PAC was sued by volunteers who had collected signatures for the petition but had yet to receive their promised payments.
