Texas Mayor Calls Governor's Lifting Mask Mandate 'Wrong,' Apologizes for Mexico Trip

Democratic Mayor Steve Adler of Austin, Texas criticized Governor Greg Abbott's decision to lift the statewide mask mandate during a Saturday appearance on Fox News.

"I have been really hard and really insistent that the mandate shouldn't have gone away," Adler told Fox News host Neil Cavuto. "We try to be guided by science and the data, and removing the mandate is not being guided by the science and the data."

"Whatever you want to call it, it's the wrong move," Adler added.

The Austin mayor then noted that wearing a face mask doesn't slow down the process of reopening businesses or returning children to in-person learning.
