'Strong working relationship…': Hinojosa softens tone on Musk after campaigning against SpaceX deal
Texas’ Democratic Governor-elect Gina Hinojosa is striking a more conciliatory tone toward Elon Musk after campaigning against a proposed SpaceX land deal, saying she can work with his companies if they operate "on our terms." "As Governor, I’ll protect our land and our livelihoods – not sell out to the highest bidder – because Texans deserve a leader who puts the people first," Hinojosa said in a campaign press release in October. But having won her election, her tone has shifted.
