Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, has introduced a new initiative offering $47 to U.S. voters who help gather support for a petition defending free speech and the right to bear arms.
This program is aimed at registered voters in swing states, where their political influence is important for the upcoming elections.
“For every person you refer who is a swing state voter, you get $47! Easy money,” Elon Musk announced on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.
The petition, available on Musk’s America PAC website, is looking to collect 1 million signatures from voters in key states. The America PAC was formed to support former President Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign.
The petition focuses on protecting the First and Second Amendments of the U.S. Constitution. The First Amendment protects the freedoms of speech, religion, the press, and peaceful assembly, while the Second Amendment guarantees the right of citizens to bear arms.
