CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas â Governor Abott announced Tuesday that heâs lifting some of the COVID-19 restrictions starting next Wednesday.
One of the restrictions he is lifting is the state-wide mask mandate, so if you don t want to wear one in a public place like the mall or restaurants, technically you won t have to.
âWeâre just not ready and then you got Easter coming up, you got spring break next week, you know what I mean. Itâs just the wrong time,â Patricia Ingram, a local in the Coastal Bend said.
