Democrats take control of Congress in January 2027. Following their sweeping victory in the November 3 midterm elections, Democrats are preparing to investigate alleged government corruption, potential conflicts of interest and the financial activities of people connected to the president.
Representative Robert Garcia of California, who is expected to become chairman of the House Oversight Committee, has indicated that Elon Musk and members of the Trump administration could be called to testify.
Speaking to CNN’s State of the Union on November 8, Garcia said several congressional committees were interested in questioning Musk about his involvement in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

‘I think there’s a lot of interest, not just from our committee, but from committees across the Congress to speak to Mr Musk,’ he said.
Why Is Elon Musk Facing Congressional Scrutiny?
Democrats want to investigate Musk’s role in DOGE, which was responsible for reducing federal spending and restructuring government departments.
The initiative oversaw major workforce reductions and changes across federal agencies. Lawmakers want to examine how these decisions were made, what authority Musk and his associates exercised, and whether they received access to sensitive government information.
