Original title: musk: Biden's "discrimination" against Tesla
According to Bloomberg, Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, criticized US President Biden for "Prejudice" against the company, after Tesla was excluded from the electric vehicle summit held at the White House.
Biden invited auto executives to the White House in August to discuss the common goal of increasing electric vehicle production. Executives of Ford, GM and stellantis were invited, while Tesla, the world's largest electric vehicle manufacturer, was not invited.
At the same time, Biden signed an executive order that by 2030, half of the new cars sold in the United States will be electric vehicles. GM, Ford and stellantis responded to the government's call.
Musk said at the code conference in California on Tuesday that the government is too influenced by trade unions, and he would prefer to see a more neutral president.
Musk told the reporter Kara Swisher at the meeting: "he didn't mention Tesla once. Instead, he praised GM and Ford for leading the electric vehicle revolution. This is not the friendliest government. It seems to be controlled by trade unions."
Tesla is headquartered in Palo Alto, California. Its factory near Fremont employs about 10000 workers. The United Auto Workers Union (UAW) has tried to include these workers many times, but no workers joined the union due to Musk's tough attitude.
In response to Musk's comments, Cindy Estrada, vice president of the UAW, responded on twitter that musk should stop complaining, "good leaders will not be afraid of smart employees, but will accept them!"
In fact, Musk's public criticism of U.S. authorities is not once or twice.
He said at the meeting that the securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) should be called the "short seller enrichment Commission".
Musk proposed the "short sellers get rich committee" on twitter in April 2018, and then the SEC launched an investigation and took it to court. The final result was that the two sides reached a settlement agreement. Musk resigned as chairman of Tesla.
