A second class-action lawsuit has been filed against Elon Musk’s America PAC alleging that the group hasn’t paid voters what they were promised for signing a petition during President Trump’s 2024 campaign.
Three plaintiffs from Pennsylvania, Nevada and Georgia filed the lawsuit last week on behalf of anyone who is in the same situation, accusing the super PAC of not paying them in full for their signatures or for referring other voters to sign. The petition declared support for the First and Second amendments to the Constitution.
Musk and the group originally offered signatories, and those who refer others to sign, $47 for their signature and each person they refer before raising the amount to $100. The offer was just for those living in battleground states during the presidential election.
But the plaintiffs allege they weren’t paid the promised amount for signing or referring other registered voters to sign. The complaint states that one plaintiff, Steven Reid, worked as a canvasser for America PAC in Michigan and Georgia and referred “many voters” to sign but hasn’t received the reward despite “multiple attempts” to collect.
The complaint states that Reid estimates he is owed at least several thousand dollars for the referrals.
“Plaintiffs are in communication with numerous others who referred voters to sign the America PAC petition, who are likewise frustrated that they did not receive full payments for their referrals,” the suit reads.
This is the second lawsuit against America PAC over alleged nonpayment regarding the petition, after a man from Pennsylvania anonymously filed a complaint last month making similar allegations. That man alleged that Musk and the group owe him $20,000 for gathering signatures.
He said he made repeated attempts to contact the organization but “to no avail.”
A spokesperson for America PAC at the time denied wrongdoing and said the group is committed to paying “every legitimate petition signature.”
The spokesperson declined to comment when reached about the most recent lawsuit.
Musk also separately offered in the final weeks of the election season to give away $1 million per day to someone who signed the petition, raising some legal questions as the signers were required to be registered to vote. Another class action lawsuit filed in November alleged that was a fraud as it was predetermined who would win.
