AP: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott removes prison as punishment for violating coronavirus restrictions after Dallas salon owner jailed

Throwing Texans in jail whose biz’s shut down through no fault of their own is wrong.
I am eliminating jail for violating an order, retroactive to April 2, superseding local orders.
Criminals shouldn’t be released to prevent COVID-19 just to put business owners in their place.
