Summary

The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) called Elon Musk’s email to federal employees demanding details of their past week’s work “plainly unlawful.

Musk shared the email and threatened resignation for non-compliance, sparking outrage and confusion.

The union’s president, Everett Kelley, called for the email’s retraction and an apology, citing a lack of legal authority and violations of management delegation.

Agencies like the Defense Department advised employees to disregard the email, asserting their own management authority. The union criticized the email as disruptive and intimidating.
