Rick Perry always has a lot of brave things to say when the legislature isn't in session. Funny that the only time he has come out in support of an environmentally friendly industry is when he stands to gain a 6500 job windfall at the end of his term...

Theoretically he could still sign a bill relating to Tesla, even in regular session. The next meeting of the Legislature starts on 13 Jan 2015 and his term ends on 20 Jan 2015. Though expecting anything to get past 1st, 2nd, and 3rd reading in both the House and Senate in under 6 days is almost certainly a doomed expectation.
