The mayor of San Antonio and others have taken Gov. Abbot to court and received a decision that blocks the governor’s anti-mask mandate order.
After the mandate went into effect some school districts went ahead and made masks mandatory and the governor threatened to take them to court. That goes against common sense – masks have been a health aid for more than a hundred years.
Something is wrong when a state government makes laws that prevent requirements that benefit the health and safety of the public. The federal government needs to pass a constitutional amendment that prevents anyone from interfering with the health and safety of the public. And there need to be stiff penalties for interference.
