Elon Musk Accused Of Failing To Pay Millions To Canvassers In Class-Action Lawsuit
HuffPost
More than $5,000,000 to more than 100 people is likely owed for work performed before the 2024 election, the suit claims.
Billionaire Elon Musk and his super PAC are facing a class-action lawsuit claiming they owe millions to canvassers who helped sign petitions during the 2024 election.
The federal lawsuit filed Tuesday by a Pennsylvania man, who is not identified for safety and security reasons, estimates that Musk and America PAC owe more than $5,000,000 to more than 100 people for their work.
The man claims he and other registered voters were promised $100 for signing a petition supporting free speech and gun rights. They’d get another $100 for every additional voter’s signature they helped secure on the petition.
“While Plaintiff was paid his hourly rate for canvassing, and he was paid some referrals for the petition signatures he obtained (albeit well after he performed the work to obtain these referrals), Plaintiff estimates that he has not been paid at least $20,000 he is owed for his referrals,” states the lawsuit, which was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
Repeated attempts to contact Musk and America PAC for the money have not been successful, the suit adds.
