The American Council of the Blind (ACB) is disappointed by the recent statement made by Elon Musk regarding a blind topic expert who spoke before Congress. The speaker from a government watchdog organization testified before Congress about the potential wastefulness of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). In response, Elon Musk made a juvenile comment that the blind gentleman could not “see waste” because of his visual impairment. Such a statement is uninformed; Mr. Musk should be held accountable for such a tasteless remark. Blind professionals are competent and capable of doing their jobs. Such a play on words is inappropriate and detrimental to society’s view of successfully employed blind and low-vision people.
