Urging the attorney general to join efforts to hold Elon Musk accountable for unlawful executive action.
This House Concurrent Resolution urges the Kansas Attorney General to join other state attorneys general in challenging the actions of Elon Musk. The bill argues that Musk's role in federal agencies is unconstitutional because he was not appointed by the President with Senate confirmation, violating the Appointments Clause. It specifically references recent executive orders that granted Musk authority to manage federal agencies and personnel without proper legal appointment. The resolution calls for the state attorney general to seek a judicial declaration that Musk's actions are invalid and to prevent him from issuing further orders.
