In this case, the relevant order is the one issued by Gov. Abbott, no the one issued by Trump.
If it follows the typical pattern, Abbott has issued quite a few orders. In Maine, a few of the governor’s order say violation is a Class E crime (that “Class E” thing is epressed in maine law, your state will vary on terminology).
Enforcement is via the usual path: cops, DA, court.
Courts typically use weasel words to explain that the constitution is still in effect, even though it isn’t.
Well, if the governor has stipulated that the health risk requires that the following rules of conduct (and, thus, suspension of certain liberties) be enforced, it is incumbent upon the governor/state to prove that the measures to be enforced are necessary. And, I would say that should cases arise where governors cast people into prison and then it is found that the proof they offer for suspension of rights is weak/insufficient, they should be open to lawsuits/fines/imprisonments (that’s how dear our rights are/that’s how weighty an issue it should be to thinking of suspending them).
It can’t be that one’s constitutional rights can be superseded so willy-nilly. The ultimate authority is the Constitution, something all elected officials swear to uphold. I know that state’s have their constitutions, but these do not trump the US Constitution.
You claim to be an advocate of following the letter of the law. How do you feel about booting the 20 million illegal aliens. Let’s enforce the law.
