America PAC lottery

The Justice Department sends a letter to America PAC, warning that awarding $1 million to registered voters who sign a petition might violate federal laws against paying voters. Such letters typically do not outline the department’s next steps and are intended to force the recipient to make changes to conform with the law. Musk’s defenders say the lottery is not illegal because it pays people who signed a petition — and did not specifically award people for registering to vote.
