Reactions Pour In After Abbott Lifts Mask Rule


“From leaving Texans to literally freeze to death to letting a deadly virus have an open season on our residents, Governor Abbott has proven many times over that he neither understands the struggles of everyday Texans, nor does he care about doing his basic duty to protect them,” Hinojosa wrote.
“This will kill Texans,” he said.
Hinojosa’s Democratic ally Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo also pointed to last month’s winter storm in her response to Tuesday’s news, and warned that Abbott may be trying to distract Texans from our state government’s failures during that disaster. “At best,” she wrote, “today’s decision is wishful thinking. At worst, it is a cynical attempt to distract Texans from the failures of state oversight of our power grid.” ....

“The people who are getting those big bills are people who gambled on a very, very low rate and it would go up with the power,” Patrick said. “But I’ve told those folks: Do not panic. We are going to figure that out.
“But going forward, people need to read fine print in those kinds of bills and we may even end that type of variable plan because people were surprised,” he continued. ....

TX House & Senate Disagree On COVID-19 Tests, Press Access


The Texas Legislature officially kicked off its 87th session last week, an every-other-year tradition that sees lawmakers of all stripes gather in Austin to pass a two-year budget and a few laws that could, in theory, improve the quality of life for Texans of all stripes if we’re lucky.
This year, the still raging coronavirus pandemic has been the topic
du jour in the Texas Capitol, as it’s been in every nook and cranny of the Lone Star State for these past ten interminable months.
Since each of the Legislature’s two chambers are independent bodies (Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick runs the state Senate, while the Texas House just installed Republican state Rep. Dade Phelan of Beaumont to be its new House Speaker), each group has kept with tradition by charting out its own set of coronavirus-inspired restrictions and rule modifications to try and keep lawmakers and the public safe from the deadly disease still floating through the air. ....
