Chrissy Houlahan, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Pennsylvania's 6th district, has expressed her concerns on social media regarding recent actions by Elon Musk. In a series of tweets posted on February 4, 2025, Houlahan criticized Musk for his alleged behavior towards federal employees and raised alarms about privacy issues related to government databases.
In her first tweet, Houlahan stated, "I am outraged by Elon Musk’s recent attacks on federal employees. These nonpartisan civil servants are the backbone of our government and are being subjected to continual harassment by Elon Musk and his makeshift unvetted team." This comment highlights her concern over what she perceives as undue pressure placed upon federal workers.
Following this statement, Houlahan continued to express worry about data security in another tweet: "They now have unfettered access to the Office of Personnel Management’s (OPM’s) human resources databases containing highly sensitive personal information on all of us, including social security numbers. Our private data should not be available to a billionaire and his posse." This post underscores her apprehension about potential breaches of privacy involving sensitive governmental information.
Finally, Houlahan urged public action in her third tweet: "If you're worried about this, call the White House and let President Trump know. 202-456-1111 or 202-456-1414." Here she encourages citizens who share her concerns to reach out directly to the executive branch.
