Correction: March 12, 2021

In my post about Texas governor Greg Abbott repealing face-covering rules in his state, I reported that county and municipal governments in Texas could still enforce face-covering mandates locally.  Not true; Abbott will have none of that.  Local and chain businesses, though, can require face coverings to enter their establishments.  I should have known that Abbott wasn't that accommodating.  After all, he took away mail-in ballot boxes in the 2020 elections.  (The error has been corrected.)
