Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton continued his crackdown on mask mandates with a lawsuit against a city north of Dallas that still requires face coverings among its employees.

Paxton said Wednesday that he is suing Denton, home of the University of North Texas, a day after the city sued him to preserve its mask rule for municipal employees. Stuart Birdseye, a spokesman, said the city had no comment on Paxton’s suit.
