Abbott begged Elon to come to Texas, offering him tax breaks to do so, while keeping our property taxes high -resulting in taxing seniors out of their homes.

Tesla to lay off nearly 2,700 employees at Gigafactory Texas: notice
AUSTIN, Texas – Tesla will be laying off nearly 2,700 employees at its Gigafactory Texas.
The information comes from a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) notice, which was sent to the Texas Workforce Commission and Austin Mayor Kirk Watson.
Starting June 14, 2,688 employees will be laid off
The notice on Monday was issued under the WARN Act, a U.S. labor law that requires companies with 100 or more employees to notify 60 days ahead of planned closings or mass layoffs.
The notice comes after employees reported being notified of the layoffs via overnight emails and a top Tesla executive announced his resignation on X, formerly Twitter.
“They gave me an entire three-paragraph condolence letter about me being laid off. They gave me a PDF about WARN, and I looked into it. They were supposed to warn me about unemployment. That WARN Act is a U.S. labor law that requires companies with 100 or more employees to notify 60 days ahead of planned closings or a mass layoff,” says Bradley Olson, who was laid off.
Employees who spoke with FOX 7 Austin said they were sent an email notifying them about the layoffs around 3 a.m. April 15 and some even showed up to work that morning only to discover their badges no longer worked.
“Just out of the blue, they laid me off,” says Olson.
