Governor Abbott Waives Certain Trucking Regulations To Expedite Hurricane Hanna Recovery In The Rio Grande Valley, Coastal Bend
| AUSTIN – Governor Greg Abbott has waived certain regulations related to commercial trucking in the state of Texas. These suspensions will allow commercial drivers to more quickly deliver supplies, specifically electric power poles, to communities in the Rio Grande Valley and the Coastal Bend that were directly impacted by Hurricane Hanna. “The State of Texas is working to ensure that recovery efforts in the Rio Grande Valley and Coastal Bend are not slowed down by red tape,” said Governor Abbott. “This waiver will expedite the delivery of much-needed resources to these communities and will help Texans rebuild.” This suspension of laws and regulations has been coordinated through the Texas Department of Public Safety. |

GAMEDAY! Win or go home tonight vs. LA Galaxy
The Houston Dynamo face the LA Galaxy on Thursday in their final group game of the MLS is Back Tournament on Thursday. With a victory, Houston can secure a top-three finish and vie for a spot as one of the four best third-place teams.
Houston will be tasked to reach the second round without forward Alberth Elis who received a red card at the end of Houston’s 2-1 loss to the Portland Timbers on Saturday. Elis scored Houston’s only goal of the game from the penalty spot late in the second half. Houston will look to forwards like Niko Hansen, Nico Lemoine and Tommy McNamara for a spark against the Galaxy.
Thursday’s match will be the second meeting with the Galaxy this season after both clubs met in the season opener in front of a sold-out crowd at BBVA Stadium. The Galaxy took the lead in the first half courtesy of a solo effort from Cristian Pavon. Dynamo defender Zarek Valentin found forward Mauro Manotas in the second half for the equalizer. Manotas can make his 150th appearance for the club in all competitions for the Dynamo on Thursday and he sits just seven goals shy of the all-time club record for goals scored in the regular season.
The Dynamo backline will keep an eye on Pavon who has five goals and nine assists in 15 games for the Galaxy since joining the club last November.
The Galaxy enter Thursday’s game with back-to-back losses after they fell to LAFC 6-2 on Saturday. Los Angeles is missing two key pieces as Javier “Chicharito” Hernanadez withdrew from the tournament due to a calf injury and Jonathan Dos Santos recovers from hernia surgery. The Galaxy will also be without Aleksandar Katai after both parties mutually agreed to part ways in June.
The Galaxy are currently winless in their first four games of the year after they opened the season in Houston and fell to the Vancouver Whitecaps at home prior to the suspension of league play due to the pandemic. The Galaxy will look to veterans like Joe Corona and Sebastian Lleget for a spark as they aim to turnaround their rocky start.
The knockout round of the MLS is Back Tournament will begin on July 25 and run through July 28. The winner of Group F is scheduled to play on July 28. The group runner up will play on July 27 and should a third-place team from Group F qualify, that team will play on July 26.
