Governor Greg Abbott has issued a proclamation extending the statewide disaster declaration for COVID-19.
The declaration was initially issued on March 13. It provides the state a variety of resources to help Texans as the state continues to mitigate the spread of COVID-19.
"Renewing this Disaster Declaration helps ensure that we have the resources and strategies in place to help communities across Texas respond to COVID-19," said Governor Abbott. "I urge Texans to take precautionary steps to protect their health by wearing a mask, social distancing, and sanitizing their hands. Working together, we will slow the spread and keep our communities safe.”
