Greg Abbott ordered state troopers to hand out forms for travelers to fill, who were being asked to quarantine once they’ve arrived at Texas airports. The order has now expanded to setting up checkpoints at the border to further screen travelers. Beginning Sunday, state troopers will set up checkpoints on the Texas/Louisiana border and screen travelers as they come in. Anyone who violates the order could face up to 180 days in jail or pay up to a $1,000 fine.
