HOUSTON – Houston-area first responders and others could have access to “millions” of additional N-95 masks and “truckloads of hand sanitizer” if it wasn’t for Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, the attorney for Auctions Unlimited told KPRC 2 Friday. He is the middle man for companies and individuals trying to sell everything from autographed baseballs to N-95 masks. Within an hour, Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo signed an order to commandeer the N-95 masks, 200,000 dust masks, hand sanitizer and other equipment. Harris County officials presented Hidalgo’s order and proceeded to load the commandeered equipment into a white Penske moving truck. He also said Harris County will pay “fair market” price for the dust masks, N-95 masks and other equipment the county ”commandeered.”Harris County has not accused Auctions Unlimited of price gouging.
