On Thursday, Senators John Cornyn and Ted Cruz sent a letter to the Trump
Administration urging them to continue funding COVID testing sites throughout
Texas.

Excerpts from the letter are below (full letter here

).

While I support the CBTS [Community-Based Testing Sites] program’s transition
to a public-private model that will expand testing at retail and pharmacy
locations at full federal expense, maintaining the CBTS drive-through sites is
critical to Texas’ testing capacity.
…
Now is not the time to end federal support of a program that is working and
successfully increasing testing capacity—especially for underserved communities
in the state.
…
I am confident that that the State of Texas and local governments are capable
of assuming control of the drive-through sites without interruption, but due to
the recent rise of COVID-19 cases in Texas, cities need additional time to
prepare for the transition to state and local control of the testing sites.
This is a risk that is not worth taking at this time.
