Mayor Eric Johnson's statement on Governor Abbott's plan to reopen Texas businesses

DALLAS -- Mayor Eric Johnson released the following statement on Gov. Greg Abbott's plan to reopen segments of the Texas economy:

“The governor has made a decision and, under Texas law, he has the final say in these matters, so now it is incumbent upon all Texans to ensure that this plan is successful. Dallas residents and local leaders have worked hard to flatten the curve of COVID-19's spread, and we must continue our commitment to social distancing practices, good hygiene, protecting our vulnerable populations, and doing all we can to increase testing and contact tracing.”
