On Tuesday, billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk announced that he was moving his companies X and Space X from California to Texas. Musk has said that the relocation of his two companies' headquarters is in protest at a new gender identity law in California which he opposes.
On Monday, July 15th, California's Democratic Governor, Gavin Newsom, signed new legislation on gender identity. The bill makes California the first US state to ban schools from informing parents of their child's desire to change their gender identity, or be addressed by different pronouns or names. LGBTQ+ organizations say the law protects transgender children living in hostile family situations. Since the bill was signed into law, a southern California school district has sued Gov. Newsom, claiming the law undermines the parent-child relationship. Emily Rae, a lawyer representing the school district, has said that "school officials do not have the right to keep secrets from parents, but parents do have a constitutional right to know what their minor children are doing at school."
Among the critics, Elon Musk has described the new law as an 'attack' on families, and said he would take his businesses to conservative Texas, which also has a lower corporate tax rate.

DW interviews Saul Gonzalez, journalist, and host of "The California Report" on Elon Musk's decision.
