Off to the Lone Star State: Musk plans to move Space X and X to Texas
The multi-billionaire tweeted on X about the move from California to Texas, but for strange reasons
Words: Charlie Bentley
Elon Musk has decided to trade in the glitz and glamour of California for the wide-open spaces of Texas. Yes, you heard it right: SpaceX and X (formerly Twitter) will be packing their bags and heading to the Lone Star State. But what's behind this high-stakes game of corporate musical chairs? The reason seems quite bizarre and not exactly “business-minded.”
Elon Musk, never one to shy away from a headline, has stated that his move is driven by California's new gender identity laws. Governor Gavin Newsom's recent legislation, which bars schools from informing parents about their children's gender identity changes, was the "final straw," according to Musk. This isn't the first time Musk has butted heads with California's political climate—he's been vocal about his disdain for what he views as the state's overreaching policies.
