Tesla Eyeing Move to Texas

Elon Musk wants to reincorporate Tesla in Texas, and he’s asked the company’s shareholders to vote on the matter. The potential move is motivated by a Delaware court’s ruling that Musk’s $56 billion compensation package is unfair to shareholders.

After the court’s ruling, Musk polled X users on whether he should proceed with the move. After 87% of the 1.1 million respondents voted yes, Musk immediately scheduled a shareholder vote to finalize the relocation.

Since 2021, Musk has been transferring portions of Tesla to the Lone Star State. Additionally, there are reports that he’s establishing a new town outside Austin where Tesla employees can reside and work.

Paxton Sues Five Cities

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed lawsuits against the cities of Austin, San Marcos, Killeen, Denton, and Elgin over ordinances that decriminalize low-level marijuana offenses.

The ordinances were passed after being approved by voters in local ballot propositions. Since the five cities are considered “home-rule” jurisdictions, they have “full power of self-government.”

Paxton argued these ordinances conflict with state law and cities lack the legal authority to adopt such policies:

“I will not stand idly by as cities run by pro-crime extremists deliberately violate Texas law and promote the use of illicit drugs that harm our communities.”
