what? I hadn't heard about this, maybe I missed it but apparently so did everyone else because the roads are packed.

Harris County's stay-at-home order extended through May 20, residents encouraged to report violators

Where exactly does she get the authority to do this? I didn’t realize judges could just issue orders whenever they felt like it.

She’s not an actual judge. Texas calls the elected head of a county a “a county judge.” Nothing to do with legal training or the legal system. She’s an executive official.

It’s a pretty toothless order regardless bc Abbot said local authorities can’t be more restrictive than he is

She is a product of straight party ballot voting.

Just another reason to not live in Harris County.

I thought all the State lockdown orders allowed local authorities to be more strict. The only restriction was that they couldn’t be less strict than the state order — only more.

Maybe I misheard that.

Too bad the Gov just announced barbers and salons can open this Friday... Gyms the 18th.

You'd be wrong:

quote:

“To the extent that it’s not overridden by this executive order, local jurisdictions do still have the flexibility to impose standards that they may consider to be more strict,” Abbott said.

“To the extent it’s not overridden by executive order.”

Which means if Abbot says everything is open on May 17th that controls.

If Abbot says nothing then yes she can be more strict. But for example she wasn’t going to allow the 25% capacity openings until Abbot mandated it.

Compare to JBE’s language, which allowed for some reopenings and curbside service, but gave local leaders the ability to forbid any type of reopening.

Praise Jesus, although you would have better luck getting into Fort Knox than getting into a Sport Clips this weekend.

Everyone I talk to around here thinks she's a retard. No one really takes he seriously and neither does law enforcement. Once her term is up she's gone.

Don’t you dare question here authority, legality, or intelligence. That would make you racist and sexist

I live in Houston and have yet to wear a mask. But one problem here has been crime- they are giving out citations instead of arresting law breakers!! Insane!! But then these idiot libs voted in this little inexperienced bimbo, what could we have expected??
