Elon Musk Says He’s Moving SpaceX And X From California To Texas, Blames New Trans Privacy Law


Elon Musk is moving the headquarters of X and SpaceX from California to Texas, blaming a new law granting school children gender identity privacy.

Elon Musk is moving the headquarters of social media platform X and rocket ship maker SpaceX from California to Texas, blaming a new law that bars school districts in the state from requiring that parents be notified of changes in their child’s gender identification. “I did make it clear to Governor Newsom about a year ago that laws of this nature would force families and companies to leave California to protect their children.” Musk, also the CEO of Tesla, moved the electric automaker’s corporate headquarters from Palo Alto, California, to Austin in 2021 to protest against the Bay Area’s tough coronavirus lockdowns.
