Luther, in defiance of Texas lockdown orders, reopened her salon to feed her family and the families of her employees. First, the government attempted to bully Luther into closing her business by issuing citations, but she held firm to her right to work and feed her family. When left-wing Judge Eric Moye then attempted to coerce Luther into saying that she was selfish for attempting to remain financially afloat, she refused. "I just want to thank all of you I just barely met. And now you're all my friends. You mean so much to me and this would have been nothing without you. Thank you so, so much."
