The U.S. Department of Justice has reportedly issued a warning to a pro-Donald Trump political action committee run by Elon Musk over the group’s daily $1 million lottery for registered voters in swing states.

A letter from the DOJ’s public integrity section was recently sent to Musk’s America PAC about the lottery, CNN reported on Wednesday, citing unnamed “people briefed on the matter.”

The anonymous sources cited by the cable news network say the letter warns that the lottery potentially violates federal law.

Musk announced the lottery at a Trump campaign event in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, on Saturday. Since then, at least two winners have been announced — each of whom had already voted by mail as Republicans in the Keystone State before they entered the sweepstakes.
