Texas is open: Gov. Abbott ends mask mandates, allows businesses to have 100% occupancy

As Covid-19 infection and death numbers improve, the state of Texas is moving to help businesses and employees recover.

For over a year, scientists have debated the efficacy of closing down businesses or limiting capacity to stave off Covid-19 infections. Meanwhile, other scientists have debated the efficacy of face masks with seemingly no difference in infection rates between states that do or do not mandate them. Texas Governor Greg Abbott has officially sided with scientists who want the economy—and our lives—opened back up.

BREAKING: The governor of the FREE STATE of TEXAS has announced that masks are no longer required in Texas and all businesses can open at 100% capacity.

In an executive move on Tuesday, Abbott called on the people of Texas to continue to operate safely but without forced restrictions from government. He has lifted face mask mandates and is allowing businesses to open up to 100% capacity. But he still cautioned that safety measures not mandated by government should still be followed.

“People and businesses don’t need the state telling them how to operate,” Abbott said. “Texas is in a far better position now than when I issued my last executive order back in October. Now, Texans have mastered the daily habits to avoid getting COVID.”

Abbott, who has been vaccinated for Covid-19, also touted the state’s rollout of vaccines. “Today Texas will report a new one day record for the number of people receiving vaccines—more than 216,000,” he Tweeted. “We are now providing more than 1 million Vaccines a week. This is a big reason why hospitalizations are at the lowest level in four months. Always voluntary.”

Today Texas will report a new one day record for the number of people receiving vaccines—more than 216,000.

We are now providing more than 1 million Vaccines a week.

This is a big reason why hospitalizations are at the lowest level in four months.

Always voluntary.#txlege

Many, particularly conservatives, have warned that mandates based solely on healthcare recommendations do not take into account the economic and psychological tolls on citizens. Since “15 Days to Slow the Spread” was launched nearly a year ago, there have been sharp increases in clinical depression, drug overdoses, and suicides.

“It is now time to open Texas 100%,” he said. “Every business that wants to be open should be open.”

This is about choice. Lifting mandates does not mean people will be forced to venture forth without masks or open up their businesses willy-nilly. In Texas, the people can now choose their personal level of Covid caution.



COVID-19 lockdowns are taking down an independent news outlet

Nobody said running a media site would be easy. We could use some help keeping this site afloat.

Colleagues have called me the worst fundraiser ever. My skills are squarely rooted on the journalistic side of running a news outlet. Paying the bills has never been my forte, but we’ve survived. We have ads on the site that help, but since the site’s inception this has been a labor of love that otherwise doesn’t bring in the level of revenue necessary to justify it.

When I left a nice, corporate career in 2017, I did so knowing I wouldn’t make nearly as much money. But what we do at NOQ Report to deliver the truth and fight the progressive mainstream media narrative that has plagued this nation is too important for me to sacrifice it for the sake of wealth. We know we’ll never make a ton of money this way, and we’re okay with that.

Things have become harder with the coronavirus lockdowns. Both ad money and donations that have kept us afloat for a while have dropped dramatically. We thought we could weather the storm, but the resurgence of lockdowns that mainstream media and Democrats are pushing has put our prospects in jeopardy. In short, we are now in desperate need of financial assistance.

The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We need approximately $17,300 to stay afloat through March when we hope the economy will be more open, but more would be wonderful and any amount that brings us closer to our goal is greatly appreciated.

The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. This shouldn’t be the case as our traffic the last year has been going up dramatically. June, 2018, we had 11,678 visitors. A year later in June, 2019, we were up to 116,194. In June, 2020, we had 614,192. In November, 2020, we hit 1.2 million visitors.

We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.

As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.

American Conservative Movement

Join fellow patriots as we form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism. The coronavirus crisis has prompted many, even some conservatives, to promote authoritarianism. It’s understandable to some extent now, but it must not be allowed to embed itself in American life. We currently have 11,000+ patriots with us in a very short time. If you are interested, please join us to receive updates.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down

Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.

For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We just launched a GiveSendGo page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.

Thank you and God bless!
