Imagine a virus so deadly that you actually have to be tested, just to know you have

[danielrichter]

Very afraid he will lose his power over everyone.

[goatzega]

LOL, no one told you not to wear a mask. What a joke!!!! You can still wear a mask if you want to.!!!

[keithmoore]

I never wore a mask during mandate. Now people are complaining because Gov said they can take them off. Now those will have to be deprogrammed.

[WollisWorld]

It’s funny how they say “and how about the people upset at the new mandate “ bihhh we were upset with the old one lol how u force people to do things since when have they ever been in our best interest

[JustBRett]

Why is he doing this? Because he was told to. A lot of money was spent to put him where he’s at.

[jennahope]

we have been out all morning and it was comforting seeing all the signs that their business requires masks.

🙏🏼
edit: austin, Kyle, san marcos and new braunfels all have signs wear mask.

Great job sir!!!! Thank you for using your brain and listening to doctors!

[decordsuccessful]

Texas is lifting mask mandated and Austin is obliging masks mandated. It's controversial

[angelaveale]

Thank you to my Mayor Adler for listening to the health professionals.

[lunalinguine]

Thank you for keeping us safe Mayor Adler!!!

[sgtcs]

Wow I can’t wait to go to the grocery store without a mask

[lizard]

ABC/Disney and The University of Texas love that Chinese $$$.

[cindaanderson]

Why would anyone listen to this pathetic person!! Let Americans make their own decisions! Get government out of our rights!!

[scottrocks]

He lifted his mask when he told everyone to stay at home, when he vacationed in Mexico

[deesandman]

Why does the news correspondent sound like she doesnt agree with this major? Is she disappointed or what? Im proud of him and hope all majors take this stance against governors going against expert medical suggestions to keep safe from this awful virus.

[MrBobochow]

I haven’t worn a mask in over a year.. and to make up I’ll start triple masking in July

[humdrumdontsuccumb]

We have to start voting based on qualifications instead of a party. The governor of Texas is one the worst I have seen. Just because everything is "Bigger in Texas" doesn't mean their governor has to be the biggest fool.

[cynthiamaulden]

They can’t make us wear a mask forever, it’s time to take them off. Personally I DONT wear them, I walk in with one then take it off right away, it’s my body, my choice, my business!!!

[madelinemenor]

Good man, run for governor you got this! Get the wackadoo out!🇺🇸
