Call it the "Wear a Mask" press conference from Governor Abbott on Monday as the Texas Governor urged Texans to wear masks and face coverings.
There was no mention of schools reopening on Monday, no new policy, or expansion of businesses that could open. Instead, Monday's press conference was a warning sent to citizens and locally elected officials. The warning? Turn coronavirus numbers around and start wearing masks, or else.
