Musk announced on Twitter that he will file a lawsuit against Alameda County, the county in which Tesla HQ resides, for "acting contrary" to "our Constitutional freedoms & just plain common sense!"
"Tesla is filing a lawsuit against Alameda County immediately. The unelected & ignorant 'Interim Health Officer' of Alameda is acting contrary to the Governor, the President, our Constitutional freedoms & just plain common sense!" Musk tweeted.
Musk added that Tesla will "immediately" move its HQ and future programs to Texas and Nevada.
"Frankly, this is the final straw. Tesla will now move its HQ and future programs to Texas/Nevada immediately. If we even retain Fremont manufacturing activity at all, it will be dependen on how Tesla is treated in the future. Tesla is the last carmaker left in CA," Musk said.
