McALLEN – Following an Executive Order issued by Texas Governor Greg Abbott requiring travelers to self-quarantine for 14 days as a precautionary measure to stop the spread of COVID-19 (coronavirus), Congressman Vicente Gonzalez (TX-15) issued the following statement:
Do you feel listless, like life seems surreal? Is your energy level depleted? Can’t quite get over seeing most businesses shut down and fewer vehicles on the road? Join the club.
Without naming the local Hidalgo County city, simply to allow the fire chief to speak with more candor, and avoid worried citizens calling his station, six firefighters – three paid staff and three volunteers – who work for the same fire department are under quarantine thanks to an emergency call to which they responded last Wednesday.
We are all counting on you to stay home and save our lives! This week is the most important week to continue following the order of " Shelter in the Home."
With the coronavirus shaking up the economy and upending the day-to-day operations of businesses, it’s perhaps more critical than ever that corporate CEOs and small business owners summon up all their leadership skills.
