#opentexas ICYM my video yesterday
Tune in for an update Now! It is well past time for Texas to stop following and start leading in this battle against COVID. Our policies implemented out of fear are doing more damage to our economy and people’s health and well-being than is COVID. The current solution strategy, because it is based on unsubstantiated fear, is worse than the COVID disease. It is not the function of government to deprive citizens of civil liberties, but for every individual to utilize sound judgement and personal responsibility to pursue life, liberty, and happiness. We need to immediately return to the Texas model and society as it existed on March 1, 2020—Businesses open without government restrictions, schools open with teachers and students in their classrooms, and Churches open without government restrictions. Let us open Texas now!
