Elon Musk’s $1 trillion Tesla pay package proposal is the most extreme example of corporate greed we’ve ever seen. And we’re the people paying for it. Hard-working people like teachers, firefighters, and nurses whose public pension funds are invested in Tesla are being used to enrich the world’s richest man.
Americans for Financial Reform is fighting back. We’re pushing state financial officers and money managers list Vanguard and BlackRock to use their shareholder power to reject Musk’s outrageous pay package and vote no on all of the board of director appointments of his enablers. We’re also advocating for bold reforms in Congress to reign in excessive CEO pay and expose corporate abuses of power that harm working families and deepens inequality.
This fight takes resources, research, organizing, policy expertise, and relentless pressure on both Wall Street and state officials and asset managers who control public pension and retirement funds. Musk’s allies are pouring money into defending his payout, trying to take over and re-write corporate law, and we need your help to match their influence with grassroots power.
Your support will fuel AFR’s campaign to hold Musk and Tesla accountable, close the loopholes that enable excessive CEO compensation, and defend the workers whose futures are at stake.
Contribute to Americans for Financial Reform and fund the fight to stop Elon Musk’s $1 trillion payday, and work toward a vision of a world where the rules that govern the economy center human needs and help all families and communities to flourish.
