Congressman Greg Casar is drawing attention to significant issues concerning government contracts and military spending. Through his recent statements on social media, he outlines his stance on these topics with particular focus on Elon Musk and SpaceX.
On May 1, 2025, Casar shared his viewpoint about Musk’s compliance with governmental obligations. “My amendment is simple: If Elon Musk leaves government by May 30th, like he’s supposed to, then he followed the law. But if Musk refuses to leave, we cancel his contracts and save our government $3 billion a year.”
Later the same day, Congressman Casar provided constituents with additional information, encouraging them to “Read our full letter here”.
In a related statement, Casar publicly questioned the fairness of a government contract process involving significant defense expenditures. “Trump wants to spend trillions on a ‘Golden Dome’ missile defense shield — and Musk’s SpaceX ‘just so happens’ to be the frontrunner for the contracts. I led 40+ members of Congress in demanding the Defense Department Inspector General review Musk’s influence on the process.”
Greg Casar is currently serving in the U.S. Congress, representing Texas’ 35th district since 2023. He replaced former U.S. Congress member Lloyd Doggett. A University of Virginia graduate, he resides in Austin and has represented his district since 2023.
