The governor of Texas is ignoring the 30-day mourning period issued by the current administration for former President Jimmy Carter, who died on Dec. 29, and will raise flags to full-staff to honor Donald Trump's inauguration.
"As we unite our country and usher in this new era of leadership, I ordered all flags to be raised to full-staff at the Texas Capitol and all state buildings for the inauguration of President Trump," Gov. Greg Abbott wrote in a statement released Monday.
