HOUSTON – A day after announcing that even more Texas businesses would be allowed to reopen, some as soon as Friday, Gov. Greg Abbott discussed his announcement in a one-on-one interview with KPRC 2.
Tuesday, Abbott announced that barbershops, hair, nail and tanning salons would be allowed to reopen Friday and gyms, non-essential manufacturers and office buildings could reopen on May 18.
