Yang says he’s been ‘in touch’ with Musk on America Party

UNITED STATES, JUL 07 – Elon Musk launched the America Party to challenge the two-party system with a focus on innovation and economic reform, backed by Andrew Yang's support and aiming for key congressional seats.

  • Elon Musk announced on Saturday his launch of the America Party, aiming to break the U.S. two-party system by influencing key congressional races.
  • Musk's decision follows deep partisan polarization and longstanding difficulties for third parties to succeed in U.S. elections.
  • The America Party aims to secure a small number of Senate positions—around two or three—as well as between eight and ten seats in the House, enabling its members to hold influential voting power on key legislative decisions.
  • Musk conducted polls with millions of respondents, with over 65% favoring the America Party, which he declared is “formed to give you back your freedom.”
  • While the party could reshape legislative dynamics if successful, experts and politicians remain skeptical about its ability to alter the entrenched two-party system.
