Blackburn&#8217;s resolution aims to address the violence occurring against Tesla dealerships and customers, highlighting that only a couple of Democrats, Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Mark Kelly (D-AZ), have spoken out against these acts. She specifies that incidents are escalating to the point of federal and hate crime charges as they stem from political opposition to President Trump and Elon Musk&#8217;s policies.<\/p>\n<p>Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) has also condemned these acts, noting that Tesla provides jobs for over 20,000 people in his district. Blackburn asserts that criticism of Musk and tesla by Democrats has fueled hostility leading to property destruction and threats against the company, which she claims is a response to opposition against their efforts to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/house-dems-push-back-on-calls-to-raise-spending-in-defense-bill\/\" title=\"House Dems Push Back on Calls to Raise Spending in Defense Bill\">save taxpayer money<\/a>. additionally, Tesla has faced exclusion from political events and gatherings, notably under Biden&#8217;s governance, which has not included the company in discussions about electric vehicles.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Marsha Blackburn unveils resolution against anti-Tesla &lsquo;domestic terrorism&rsquo;<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2076315\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Sen. <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/marsha-blackburn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Marsha Blackburn<\/a> (R-TN) is putting pressure on Senate Democrats to condemn attacks against <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/3359861\/dc-police-investigate-tesla-attack-hate-crime-penalty\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Tesla\">Tesla<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Only two senators outside of the Republican Party have spoken out against anti-Tesla crime: Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Mark Kelly (D-AZ).
