US EditionWhat to Know About Elon Musk’s ‘America Party’
- On Saturday, Elon Musk revealed that he has established a new political group named the America Party, with the goal of restoring individual freedom to people.
- Musk initiated the party in response to a tax and spending bill signed by Donald Trump on the preceding Friday, which Musk called financially ruinous and a betrayal of conservative principles.

Shortly after the party’s announcement, several Musk-associated parties appeared in the Federal Election Commission database.

- The America Party could affect closely contested elections by siphoning Republican votes, and Musk pledged to support primary challengers against GOP lawmakers who backed the spending bill.
