There have been many memorable legislative sessions in Texas. This one promises to go down in the history books, too.

When vaccines for COVID-19 started to become available in late 2020, demand for the shots far exceeded supply.
Now, the inverse is true. About 35% of Texans are fully vaccinated, but the vaccines aren’t as highly sought-after as they were a few months ago. Instead, hospitals and pharmacies have had to throw out expired vaccines at an increasing rate, according to the Houston Chronicle.
The shift in demand has led to a change in how the Texas Department of State Health Services, or DSHS, distributes vaccines to providers. Initially, because supply was limited, the department would take the lead and allocate the vaccines it received from the federal government to individual providers. But now it leaves it to the providers to request what they need.
Gov. Greg Abbott this week swiftly ended countless community debates across Texas over whether masks should continue to be required in classrooms. Public schools can no longer mandate masks starting June 5, he said in his latest pandemic orders.
Officials at many Central Texas districts, which are scheduled to end the school year before the order goes into effect, said they would comply with Abbott s orders. Districts that defy the order, which applies to students, employees and visitors, could face a fine of up to $1,000.
Some districts including Round Rock, Eanes and Hays already had moved to make masks optional in June, after most classes end.
