Tesla CEO Elon Musk said on Twitter that he “much appreciated” an offer from a Texas county to immediately accommodate Tesla if it chose to move from California.
The letter, written by Hidalgo County Judge Richard F. Cortez, said the county had a labor force that quickly could be trained to begin manufacturing for Tesla. He noted the county no longer had a shelter-in-place mandate. Musk tweeted his reply to the letter on Monday.
