Meanwhile, just two Republican House members from North Texas districts will attend: Rep. Michael Burgess (D-Denton) and Rep. Roger Williams (R-Cleburne)
Rep. Ron Wright (R-Arlington) said he will not attend because he recently came into contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19. Last week, not long after returning to Texas following the impeachment vote in the House, I learned that several members of my staff and I had come into contact with an individual who tested positive for COVID-19. I am currently in quarantine, awaiting my COVID-19 test results, and I will continue to follow CDC guidance and the advice of my doctors and medical professionals, Wright said in a statement. With that being said, I will not attend the inauguration tomorrow but will be watching from my home in Arlington, Texas.
