I have been in Texas since 1977, Abbott is the best governor of Texas that I have seen. I knew he’d side with the people of Texas! Thank you Governor Abbott.

Just called Butch Otter's office, Idaho Governor and the guy said, "We're taking a tally, we're getting a high volume of calls and we're going to pass it on to the Governor."
