Abbot removes mask mandate and opens Texas 100%

Quote:AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas is lifting a COVID-19 mask mandate that was imposed last summer but has only been lightly enforced.

Republican Gov. Greg Abbott’s announcement Tuesday makes Texas the largest state to do away with a face covering order. The decision comes as governors across the U.S. have been easing coronavirus restrictions, despite warnings from health experts that the outbreak is far from over.

The economy of Texas will now be open 100%.

Just listened to it live.

About time

It makes sense. With no water in the state, people are going to die of thirst before anything else.

Like we needed another idiot here

Abbott is not an idiot. He might be a bit out of touch but he's not an idiot. That's no way to talk about a disabled person.

Why don't you fess up

Fess up? What does that mean?

Probably commietom, since half your rep points came from him.

That said, you do seem smarter than him, so maybe not.

Our Demoncraptic mayor and county judge will probably keep the mask mandate. I wonder whose mandate supercedes whose?

I was afraid of that. With our Demoncraptic voters they'll follow like sheep too. Oh well, since the only place we have to don that mask it's not so bad but after awhile like an hour at Walmart it gets a little hard to breathe.

Wonder if Florida follows soon although our population is a bit older than Texas.

Walmart and casinos are the only places you have to wear a mask in my hood. What makes me laugh are the idiots that wear those clear shields over their faces at the casino. That'll save em.

JEALOUSSSSSSSSS

Wondering when *Biden issues the national mask mandate/lockdowns?? (BTW, I know at least one person who voted for Biden b/c they wanted national mask mandates & lockdowns, so if he could or not is irrelevant, the point is there were voters who voted for him who wanted that & thought they were gonna get that)

DC can issue all the mandates they want but they have no standing other than on Federal property, so your "friend" is an idiot (of course the Biden vote already told us that).

It's the same thing when it comes to local government. The governor can say whatever they want but at the end of the day, The county officials have the authority to determine a state of emergency and take measures to stop it.
