If one were to read the first line of the article: “Senate Democrats have the power to block federal contracts to Tesla and SpaceX. It’s the path to pushing Musk out of politics.”
And a few paraphraphs down: “How can all of this be accomplished? The first step is for members of Congress to take a strong public stand against any government contracts awarded to Musk’s companies. From there, elected officials should begin turning their stated opposition into actual votes. The most powerful tool for this is in the hands of the U.S. Senate: the filibuster. Forty-one U.S. senators could use the filibuster to block most legislation that enables the funding of Musk’s companies. With 53 Republicans, 45 Democrats, and two independents in the Senate, such a push is numerically possible, though politically difficult.”
Just do it! Encourage your representatives to JUST DO IT!! Block him at every turn.

It might, it might not. We do know that it pisses the ones in the House off whenever people ask them to oppose anything, though.
