Gov. Greg Abbott still wants you to cover up.
After the Texas governor repealed the statewide mask mandate and declared Texas would "100 percent" open, perhaps one could assume Abbott is ready for all of us to openly breathe and cough on one another again.
No, Abbott still wants you to wear a mask. He just won't uphold the statewide mandate that said so.
