The unelected Elon Musk and his collaborators have compromised NIH and CMS data systems. This is one smash and grab among many as they loot their way through the federal government.
We are concerned about excessive cuts that compromise the work and services these agencies provide, as well as potential breaches of patient and research subject confidentiality as well as the compromise of data.
No one elected Elon Musk. Not a single vote has been cast to confirm him or his new, fabricated “department” which is unaccountable. Yet he is asserting sweeping authority across multiple critical sections of the federal government, presumably because HE PAID HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO BUY ACCESS TO THE WHITE HOUSE and his techno-feudal agenda aligns with that of Trump and others.
What we can do now:
The NIH and CMS are located in Maryland. We request that you call Governor Moore’s office (410) 974-3901 to encourage him to use his executive authority to enforce federal laws and stop this nonsense.
While we often encourage people to call and write to elected officials, we also have to be clear-sighted: No one is coming to save us.
At the same time, we must continue to build the communities we need to thrive.
