Yep good old Musk was a non invite no show due to his anti union position.
Elon Musk Says Tesla Was Not Invited to White House EV Event
Tesla's relationship with the UAW certainly seemed to play a role in the decision.
The White House hosted an EV-themed eventon Thursday of this week to announce the administration's executive action on green vehicles, aimed at raising the share of battery-electric, plug-in hybrid, and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles to 50% of sales by 2030. Representatives from General Motors, Ford, and Stellantis were attendance during the event that announced the wide-ranging (but non-binding) executive action, with President Joe Biden even driving a PHEV Jeep Wrangler on the White House grounds.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki responded a question during the day about Tesla's absence from the event, and strongly hinted that the lack of UAW representation at Tesla plants may have been part of the reason.
