The city of Brownsville will continue to require all employees, contractors, and visitors in federal buildings to wear masks or facial coverings.
Federal buildings include the La Plaza at Brownsville Terminal and Brownsville South Padre Island International Airport, the city announced in a news release.
“Despite Governor Abbott’s Executive Order that prohibits government entities to from mandating masks, the city of Brownsville is taking a conservative approach to protect its government workers,” the city said in a statement. “Instead, the city will continue to follow President Biden’s Executive Order to require mask-wearing in federal buildings and on federal lands.”
