preCharge News COLORADO — Protests against Tesla CEO Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency are continuing to take place across the country, including multiple cities in Colorado.

Since January, Musk’s DOGE has conducted mass federal layoffs at NOAA, the Department of Education, the National Park Service, and multiple other agencies. The department has recently terminated leases to federal agency offices and cut research funding in its push to downsize the federal government.

These cuts have prompted numerous protests across the country, including here in Colorado.

On Saturday, protesters gathered at dealerships in Colorado Springs, Littleton, Loveland, and Superior as part of nationwide #TeslaTakedown events on March 15. The movement is encouraging Tesla owners to sell their vehicles and encouraging people to dump their Tesla stock and protest the company.

Tesla’s stock dropped more than 30% in 2025 as pushback against the federal cuts continues. Tesla owners and dealerships across the country have also seen a spike in vandalism, including numerous cases at a dealership in Loveland.
