Governor Abbott remains confident inauguration day will come and go without incident. The past week, the Texas Department of Public Safety has been taking steps to tighten security at the state capitol with a build-up of both personnel and resources. Governor Abbott said on Tuesday that he has no reason to guess their efforts. The state capitol has been closed since Saturday, and both the Texas house and senate aren’t scheduled back till January 26.
