I have not seen any indication SpaceX or Tesla plan to relocate back to California. On the contrary they only recently discussed moving SpaceX to Texas. Is there new news I missed?


He moved Tesla Engineering from CA to TX to CA, first citing that California over-regulates, and later citing that moving to Texas was a mistake due to the power grid issues.

Now he's moving SpaceX from CA to TX, citing that California wouldn't hand over tons of healthcare data on transgender people to Texas authorities. This has nothing to do with SpaceX's actually business (just culture war nonsense), and the power grid problem isn't resolved in the slightest (it will probably get worse), so I assume that he'll be retracting that decision at some point and moving back to CA where the electricity that he needs to run his business is delivered with reliability greater than the privatized mismanaged Texas grid that deliberately refuses to peer with other state's grids (giving them no failover options outside of the state of Texas).
