The treasurer and custodian of records for the party is Vaibhav Taneja, an Indian man who has served as Tesla’s Chief Financial Officer since August 2023. Musk launched the party in response to his public fallout with President Donald Trump over the “One Big Beautiful Bill” tax and spending package, which he fiercely opposed.
