Elon Musk said he will relocate the headquarters for X and SpaceX to Texas, adding more fuel to the billionaire’s efforts to align himself with the political right and distance himself from left-leaning California.
Musk made the announcements on his X social media site Tuesday, citing frustration over a new law in California related to transgender children in public schools. California became the first US state to ban school districts from requiring teachers to notify parents about changes to a student’s sexual orientation and gender identity.
