Elon Musk-Backed PAC Under Investigation in Michigan

A political action committee backed by billionaire Elon Musk is under investigation in Michigan for possible violations of state laws, according to a spokesperson for the Michigan secretary of state's office.

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, has not committed anything to the America PAC, which has been gathering detailed voter information through its website. Despite being a federal PAC, Michigan authorities are scrutinizing their actions for state law violations and may refer the case to the state Attorney General.

Both the Michigan Attorney General's office and America PAC have yet to respond to inquiries. Notably, Musk has endorsed Donald Trump and is critical of current diversity initiatives and immigration policies.
