Excellent. More Red States will follow. Americans have had it with these lockdowns. Ending lockdowns and restrictions is a winning issue for the Republican Party in the 2022 midterm elections.
Starting tomorrow, we are lifting all of our county mask mandates and businesses will be able to operate at full capacity without any state-imposed rules. Our hospitalizations and case numbers have plummeted, and the vaccine is being rapidly distributed. It is time!

Mississippi Ends Mask Mandates, Allows Businesses To Return To Operating At Full Capacity Starting Tomorrow
By Daily Wire, March 2, 2021
Story continues below advertisementMississippi Governor Tate Reeves, a Republican, announced on Tuesday that he was lifting the mask mandates in his state effective tomorrow and that businesses in the state would be able to return to operating at full capacity.
“Starting tomorrow, we are lifting all of our county mask mandates and businesses will be able to operate at full capacity without any state-imposed rules,” Reeves said on Twitter. “Our hospitalizations and case numbers have plummeted, and the vaccine is being rapidly distributed. It is time!”
“Executive orders that interfered with peoples’ lives were the worst, but the only possible, intervention for much of the last year,” Reeves said. “Now, we are putting our focus towards rapid vaccine distribution. We are getting out of the business of telling people what they can and cannot do.”
“We’ve been among the 4 or 5 most open states throughout this crisis, and we’ve been rewarded for it with more jobs and economic recovery,” Reeves continued. “That’s not because what we put in place was a light burden. It’s only because the rest of the country was so harsh. That’s good, but we need to recognize that none of these orders, in any state, are anything short of unprecedented. They have to end at the earliest possible moment. This is that moment for Mississippi.”
The announcement from Reeves came shortly after Texas Governor Greg Abbott, also a Republican, announced on Tuesday afternoon that his state was ending the state’s mask mandate and would allow businesses to return to full capacity starting next week.

“Too many Texans have been sidelined from employment opportunities,” Abbott said. “Too many small business owners have struggled to pay their bills. This must end. It is now time to open Texas 100%.”
“So today, I’m issuing a new executive order that rescinds most of the earlier executive orders,” Abbott said. “Effective next Wednesday, all businesses of any type are allowed to open 100%. That includes any type of entity in Texas. Also, I’m ending the statewide mask mandate.”
“Today’s announcement does not abandon the safe practices that Texans have mastered over the past year,” Abbott said. “Instead, it’s a reminder that each person has their own role to play in their own personal safety as well as in the safety of others. It’s a reminder that individual safety is managed every day as a matter of personal responsibility rather than by government mandate. Individual responsibility is a corollary to individual freedom, we can have both.”
“Texans should continue following medical advice on preventing COVID just as they do on other medical issues,” Abbott said. “That is exactly how Texans were able to deal with infectious diseases in the past, like H1N1. They followed safe practices, and they got medical treatment when it was needed.”

the cases and death rates per 100,000 show the fact . you have no facts only assumptions and presumptions. If mask don’t work then why did doctors wear one ?
go back to believing bible and repeat “sun revolves around the earth”

Keep saying that as more ppl die. why do you think USA has more deaths per 100000 than most countries with mask usage ?
It was this foolish mask vs no mask debate , combined with no HCQ , no Ivermectin based stupidity that landed USA with more deaths than most third world countries.

You’re completely off base and you have no idea what you are talking about. You’re dealing with well informed people here, who aren’t going to buy your BS! But, make sure you don’t leave your house. Ever! It’s just too dangerous a world for people like you. Keep living in fear. The rest of us, don’t need moronic drones like you amongst us, taking up our good air. Cheers!

The science on masks don’t agree with your perversion amit. Cases went up 1446% after Montana’s mask mandate on 7/15…now it’s been 2.5 weeks since they lifted the mandate and cases are down -35.2%. You’d have to be a mentally insane person to read the science and still not understand a very basic point, MASKS ARE ABOUT CONTROLLING PEOPLE, NOT VIRUSES.

Yeah, I would imagine that those Covid alarmists in the Biden administration would get insane ideas like that! But the ridiculous part: those very same Covid virus alarmists who are now condemning states like Mississippi, Texas & Florida, for dropping quarantine restrictions, see no problem at all with opening up the Rio Grande border with Mexico and allowing hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens in: totally unvetted, unidentified, not-criminally-background-checked, & of unknown medical history.
This is how you can tell that their Corona-virus fear & anxiety is made-up & fake! IF THEY REALLY feared the intrusion of new mutant strains of Corona entering the country from elsewhere, like they say that they do, then they wouldn’t now be welcoming with open arms & infinite charity such a gigantic swarm of illegal migrants, as they are doing! That swarm of border-jumpers running towards our southern border for automatic, unquestioned admission in, is like the long-run promise that comes from getting control of a gold mine, to the Dems: they are implicitly doing it to garner up millions of future pro-Democrat votes! The chain-migration byproduct, & the anchor baby producing, that’ll come from letting these impoverished peasants in, will multiply the already prodigious numbers of ‘undocumented Democrats’ who’ve already intruded successfully.
Liberals are swindling this country all over again, just like they did with their all-vote-by-mail scam from last year, during the election! They’re seizing upon the Wuhan virus panic to push thru a draconian medical-authority tyranny, which clearly benefits them & their party. Meanwhile, a sordid, border-jumping invasion of destitute foreign people is being fomented at the nation’s south border——- and these conniving, duplicitous dweebs act as if there’s no contradiction in the double-play scheme!

Look carefully, conservatives WON across the board and were cheated out of an election. Trump WON by about 80 million to Biden’s 60 million. It’s been happening for years with only a few conservatives slipping thru occasionally (and of course Trump BIGLY in 2015) and unless we care to regain control of vote counting process, it doesn’t matter how popular our ideas are.

This isn’t good. The deep state is losing its grip on power & control. A false flag event may be coming. ChiComJoe and his band of blm/antifa supporters can’t allow freedom to ring across the land. We must all sing the collective song of the communist manifesto.

The states that are opening up need to publicize the survival numbers to keep reminding their populations that this virus has mortality statistics closer to the common cold than the Bubonic Plague or Ebola.
They also need to remind the public that before anyone ever heard of CV19, that 70% of all deaths every day occur in people over the age of 65.

Our governor, a major dictator, will never do this. We are in line behind Cally and New York, so I guess it’s never for us and I will have to move to a free state to regain my freedom.

Looks like the ‘new normal’ Covid worm is turning back to the real normal. Two corrupt Dem governors on the chopping block.
Three red states casting off the Covid restrictions, FLA, TX and Miss.
What’s a fascist Dem to do?
