ALT A pile of books on the ground covered in bright yellow sticky notes with black writing.
Author shows zero knowledge of Texas jurisdictions & gets easily confused when policies vary:
State manages Capitol grounds & State Cemetery
City manages city streets & permitting
City had different policies when vaccines existed and didn't (shocking!)
