2nd Tesla Protest Held Against Musk, DOGE In Lower Bucks Co.

WARMINSTER, PA —Residents against Elon Musk and his DOGE making cuts to federal government jobs held their second protest at Bucks County's Tesla dealership.

About a thousand citizens from the Philadelphia region protested outside the Tesla showroom on York Road on a recent Saturday in an event organized by Indivisible Montgomery County.

Participants held signs to also rally against President Trump, Musk, and DOGE's violation of the privacy of personal data as "they simultaneously are firing swaths of civil servants in agencies that protect the public welfare," organizers said.

By the end of the event, rally-goers stood shoulder to shoulder along the west side of York Road from Roberts Street straight up to Street Road, with a large number of overflow participants lining the east side of the highway in front of Archbishop Wood High School, organizers said.

The event was organized by a coalition of Southeastern Pennsylvania Indivisible organizations.

“Elon Musk is using his unchecked power to drive his own agenda,” said Kelly Walker of Indivisible Montgomery County, the primary hosting organization for this event. “He is at this very moment working to dismantle our democracy, and rig the system to benefit himself and other billionaires. All of us who are gathering for protests like this one are here to say that we will not stand for it! We hope that the sheer number of participants today from our community sends a message to the Trump Administration about how unacceptable their actions have been.”

Cindy Rosenberg, the leader of Indivisible Greater Jenkintown, said that "Musk and Trump’s firing spree at federal agencies is having a direct impact on our own community."

“We had a dangerous chemical fire here that impacted Abington and Jenkintown," she said. "Federal agencies like the Environmental Protection Agency are critical to the process of protecting the safety of residents in such emergencies. When Trump and Musk cut thousands more employees at the EPA, what will that mean for all of us when such environmental crises happen in the future?”

Kierstyn Zolfo, a leader with Indivisible Bucks County, said that Musk and his DOGE are "endangering us all with their careless slashing of critical federal staffers."

“They claim to be using a scalpel and not a chainsaw, but why then are they making so many mistakes and needing to rehire mistreated civil servants? Why are they cutting food safety services and air traffic controllers? Trump, Elon and DOGE are making us all less safe, and no one voted for that. Just like no one voted for Elon Musk," Zolfo said.
