Musk Moving X and SpaceX HQ from California over Parental Notification Law

Elon Musk has announced that X (formerly Twitter) and SpaceX headquarters will be leaving California and relocating to Texas.

The move comes after Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law on Monday requiring school districts to deny parents the right to know when their child is using a different name or pronoun at school.

Musk had warned Newsom more than a year ago that such laws would force families and companies to flee the state in order to protect their children.

The California Globe reports that the new law was met with an immediate lawsuit from a southern California school district that’s already embroiled in litigation over the issue of parental notification regarding transgender students.

Musk’s announcement on Tuesday prompted a warning from California Republican Assembly Leader James Gallagher who noted that forcing the nation’s wealthiest entrepreneur out of the state could prompt other businesses to follow suit.

The law barring California school districts from having to notify parents of their child’s gender identity change wasn’t the only reason for Musk’s decision but rather, a final straw that Musk said would break the parent-child relationship and put the state in charge of children.

According to Musk, the move was also prompted by a growing weariness of dealing with crime and drug addicts.
