MIKE PENCE: As we work now to safely reopen this state and this nation to put Americans back to work, and to worship, let me take this opportunity to commend Governor Greg Abbott for his courageous and compassionate leadership for the people of Texas during this challenging time.

Thank you, Governor Abbott.

Working with your governor, we will put the health of the people of the Lone Star State first. And every single day, we'll continue to reclaim our freedom and our way of life, as each day we are one day closer to the day we put this pandemic in the past. And when we do, with this governor and this president, we'll bring Texas and America back, bigger and better than ever before.
