WASHINGTON — On Thursday, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or SEC filed a lawsuit against Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk. The tech billionaire has now responded that a comprehensive overhaul of these agencies is sorely needed.
What Happened: In the lawsuit, the SEC accused Musk of failing to comply with a subpoena related to his 2022 Twitter stock purchase. The commission alleged that his refusal to testify hinders the SEC’s investigation into possible violations of federal securities laws.
