In a recent House Judiciary subcommittee hearing, Representative Jim Jordan, a Republican from Ohio, had an intriguing exchange with Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke. He sought clarification on whether the lawsuit launched by the administration against SpaceX was related to the belief that Elon Musk's enterprise was employing 'too many Americans.'

This line of questioning from Rep. Jordan revolved around a suit, brought against SpaceX by the Justice Department in August, alleging the company's discriminatory practices. The basis for this legal action was an alleged exclusion of refugees and individuals pursuing asylum from SpaceX's recruitment efforts, which, if proven, would be in violation of immigration rules.

Jordan was probing for connections between the suit and recent actions of SpaceX's founder, Elon Musk. The question emerged: could this lawsuit have some hidden relationship with the major purchase from Musk, who recently acquired the social media platform—Twitter?

Jordan framed his inquiry in a sharp, direct manner. He said, 'I just want to get straight to the root of the issue.' His pointed question to Clarke was whether SpaceX was getting sued because it prioritized hiring Americans over non-citizens such as refugees or those granted asylum.

Jordan laid out his understanding of the timeline, referring to the fact that the investigation into SpaceX started three years prior. Yet, it was only after Musk's significant Twitter acquisition that the Attorney General's office decided to bring this lawsuit. He wanted to verify if his grasp of the timeline was correct.
