"SAN FRANCISCO -- Billionaire Elon Musk says he's moving the headquarters of SpaceX and social media company X to Texas from California.

Musk posted on X Tuesday that he plans on moving SpaceX from Hawthorne, California to the company's rocket launch site dubbed Starbase in Texas. X will move to Austin from San Francisco.

He called a new law signed Monday by California Gov. Gavin Newsom that bars school districts from requiring staff to notify parents of their child’s gender identification change the “final straw.”

“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 wrote.

Tesla, where Musk is CEO, moved its corporate headquarters to Austin from Palo Alto, California in 2021.

Musk has also said that he has moved his residence from California to Texas, where there is no state personal income tax.

SpaceX builds and launches its massive Starship rockets from the southern tip of Texas at Boca Chica Beach, near the Mexican border at a site called Starbase. The company’s smaller Falcon 9 rockets take off from Cape Canaveral, Florida, and Southern California.

It’s just below South Padre Island, and about 20 miles from Brownsville."

Not saying the law is right or wrong but I wonder how much of this decision was due to the fact that there is no state personal income tax in Texas ???

My guess is that was a much bigger motivation than any political arguments

Yep you could be right but how many people move house because of a political issue that really doesn't affect them ???

My guess is that Texas is bending over backwards to get him to move SpaceX there and this was more a financial decision than a political one.

Money always makes decisions easier to make in life, some will say "it is not for the money but principle of the fact." I do not buy that argument.

"Billionaire Elon Musk is denying reports that said he is donating $45 million a month to a super PAC supporting former President Trump each month leading up to the November election.

"What's been reported in the media is simply not true," Musk said in an interview with conservative commentator Jordan Peterson. "I am not donating $45 million a month to Trump."

This comes after The Wall Street Journal reported that Musk was planning to donate $45 million a month to America PAC, which focuses on registering voters and urging swing state residents to vote early and request mail-in ballots as a way to counter Democrats' "get out the vote" campaigns and on-the-ground efforts.

Trump, in an apparent reference to the report, said at a campaign rally on Saturday that he read Musk was giving him $45 million a month. "He didn't even tell me about it," Trump said."
