This is FAR from "settled".

By the time the shitstorm of lawsuits crests, several of these cases will make it all the way to SCOTUS.

We may see the several changes in regards to limitation, scope, or even the end of "emergency powers" by state/municipal exectives altogether.

Declaring an emergency =/= immediate power to suspend due process and specifically enumerated Constitutional freedoms.

So as of now, Hidalgo's order has this support


Police Union - "We won't enforce it, its stupid"
Texas AG - "Cops should focus on criminals and not this"
Mayor Turner - "HPD will not issue fines for not wearing a mask"

Pending lawsuit asking for a stay

She was only elected because of the straight democrat ballot that almost got Beto elected. People were just clicking straight democrat without having to even read the ballot. It has since been abolished.

Well, she's a 'judge' only in title...basically the mayor of Harris County.

Still, I don't know what Harris County residents were thinking when they elected her.

I hope that if there is any silver lining to this, it comes in the form of Hidalgo diminishing any good will she may have had with the Harris County constituency, and that they remember when election time comes.

Gov. Has convinced people that your mask is for me, and my mask is for you. Now people get pissed if you don’t wear one because they feel you don’t care about their health.

This is not gonna end well.

Cannot wait for Monday and pissing off people... The ignorant people in my neighborhood (gated) started a text message thread last night "will we be wearing masks inside of the community come Monday". It took everything in me not to blast them.

So if someone says they are only 9 and were born on February 29th, they are under 10, right?

I find it hilarious that she is at the podium talking with her mask but the poor sign language guy doesn’t have one right next to her. Why does she hate the deaf?

Smart move to use the Texas Constitution instead of the U.S Constitution. Jacobsen is some pretty strong medicine under the U.S Constitution, but Texas judges don't play when it comes to rights - and overreacting 28-year-olds.

More backlash... Cannot wait til Monday. Would love to see the look on her smug face when she sees nobody abiding by her decree

quote:

The backlash against a mandatory order requiring Harris County residents to wear face coverings for 30 days beginning on April 27 grew on Wednesday after The Woodlands Township Board of Directors voted unanimously to send Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo a letter stating their opposition to the decree, which affects about 18,000 township residents who reside in the Village of Creekside Park in Harris County.

Police Union president just called Hidalgo an idiot on national tv...

Can’t wait for tomorrow, it’s going to be great.

Downloaded next door to get a consensus round my parts in Tomball. Not many are saying they will comply. Of course there are a few spreading the "it's not for you" bs.

If I'm not coughing or sneezing I'm not projecting saliva in the air IMO.
