Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said he intends to pay the $7,000 fine imposed on a salon owner who reopened her business last month in defiance of the statewide lockdown, one of a number of business owners who have reopened in recent weeks.
Patrick also said he would serve home confinement if local officials release the woman, Shelley Luther, from prison.
