Billionaire and X owner Elon Musk is ramping up the money his super PAC, America PAC, spends in the final 50 days before the November election.
America PAC is reportedly investing $10 million in turnout for races for the House, which the GOP is seeking to keep control of, according to a report from Punchbowl News, and is spending tens of millions to support former President Donald Trump‘s campaign.
Two of the states the investment will go toward include New York and California, which will likely decide whether Democrats or Republicans are in control of the House.
The investment will target more than 24 congressional districts with get-out-the-vote efforts, such as canvassing and digital ads.
America PAC is also increasing its efforts to aid Trump in the swing states that will decide the election.
The super PAC has spent almost $33 million since the middle of last month, aiding Trump with door-knocking, digital advertising, and mailers to voters in battleground states, according to a Washington Post report.
In Pennsylvania, the most important battleground state, mailers have gone out to voters in Philadelphia, a Democratic enclave, in support of Trump’s campaign.
