Johnson Targets SpaceX Grant | Adelaide News
Description
Texas Democrat Nathan Johnson is making waves by accusing SpaceX of securing a $110 million state grant for rural Starlink internet as a corrupt favor, arguing the rules were rewritten to benefit satellite providers after the governor’s office got involved. While Governor Greg Abbott defends the deal as the most practical way to bridge the digital divide in remote areas, Johnson’s campaign is positioning this as a key corruption issue — promising voters he’ll investigate if elected Attorney General. The controversy pits public accountability against infrastructure pragmatism, with even some Republicans raising eyebrows over the lack of transparency.
