1993-2000, bulk 1995-2000. Subjects include border issues, child issues, economic
development, education, employees, environment, energy, federal issues, government
issues, greetings, health, insurance, military, social issues, state agency issues,
student letters, taxes, transportation, utilities, welfare, crime, legal issues,
budget, and legislative issues.
These materials are written in English.

The records are located at the George W. Bush Presidential Library in Dallas, Texas.
Restrictions on Access
Because of the possibility that portions of these records fall under Public Information Act
exceptions including, but not limited to, privacy (§552.101), certain legislative
documents (§552.106), attorney-client privilege (§552.107), agency memoranda
(§552.111), email addresses (§552.137), social security number (§552.147), an
archivist must review these records before they can be accessed for research. The
records may be requested for research under the provisions of the Public Information
Act (V.T.C.A., Government Code, Chapter 552). The researcher may request an
interview with an archivist or submit a request by mail (Texas State Library and
Archives Commission, P. O. Box 12927, Austin, TX 78711), fax (512-463-5436), email
(Dir_Lib@tsl.state.tx.us), or see our web page (https://www.tsl.state.tx.us/requestgovernorbushrecords.html). Include
enough description and detail about the information requested to enable the
archivist to accurately identify and locate the information requested. (Note: The
Governor's Office has requested that the State Archives contact the Public
Information Coordinator for the Governor's Office when we receive a Public
Information Act request for these records.) If our review reveals information that
may be excepted by the Public Information Act, we are obligated to seek an open
records decision from the Attorney General on whether the records can be released.
The Public Information Act allows the Archives ten working days after receiving a
request to make this determination. The Attorney General has 45 working days to
render a decision. Alternately, the Archives can inform you of the nature of the
potentially excepted information and if you agree, that information can be redacted
or removed and you can access the remainder of the records.
Restrictions on Use

materials received by, not created by, state agencies. Copyright remains with the
creator. The researcher is responsible for complying with U.S. Copyright Law (Title
17 U.S.C.).
Technical Requirements

Agency History
The governor of Texas is the chief executive officer of the state, elected by the
citizens every four years. The duties and responsibilities of the governor include
serving as commander-in-chief of the state's military forces; convening special
sessions of the legislature for specific purposes; delivering to the legislature at
the beginning of each regular session a report on the condition of the state, an
accounting of all public money under the governor's control, a recommended biennial
budget, an estimate of the amounts of money required to be raised by taxation, and
any recommendations he deems necessary; signing or vetoing bills passed by the
legislature; and executing the laws of the state. The governor can grant reprieves
and commutations of punishment and pardons, upon the recommendation of the Board of
Pardons and Paroles, and revoke conditional pardons. He appoints numerous state
officials (with the consent of the Senate), fills vacancies in state and district
offices (except vacancies in the legislature), calls special elections to fill
vacancies in the legislature, fills vacancies in the United States Senate until an
election can be held, and serves as ex officio member of several state boards.
The office of governor was first established by the Constitution of 1845 and
superseded the office of president of the Republic of Texas. The position now exists
under authority of Article IV, Section 1 of the Constitution of 1876 and Texas
Government Code, Chapter 401. To be elected governor, a person must be at least
thirty years old, a United States citizen, and a resident of Texas for at least five
years preceding the election. In 1972, the term of office was extended from two to
four years, effective in 1975. Since 1856 the governor has had the use of the
Governor's Mansion.
In 1999 there were 198 full time equivalent employees in the Office of the Governor.
Thirteen divisions outside of the Executive Office assist the governor in carrying
out his functions: Administration, Appointments, Budget & Planning,
Communications, General Counsel, Legislative, Policy, Scheduling, Criminal Justice
Division, Governor's Committee on People with Disabilities, Office of Film, Music,
Television and Multimedia Industries, Women's Commission, and Texas Council on
Workforce and Economic Competitiveness.
Correspondence/Constituent Services is listed as a division within the Communications
Office (also known as the Press Office). Shirley Green served as director of
Correspondence/Constituent Services through most of Governor Bush's tenure. The
division was responsible for the mail log, the central correspondence file, honorary
certificates, greetings, and proclamations. The Ombudsman/Citizens' Assistance
program was also housed within this division. During the latter part of Governor
Bush's second term, the division also handled some of the governor's scheduling
functions.

George W. Bush Biographical Sketch
George W. Bush served as governor of Texas from January 17, 1995 to December 21,
2000, resigning as governor in the middle of his second term to become president of
the United States.
He challenged the incumbent governor, Democrat Ann Richards, running on promises to
improve public education and to reform the juvenile justice system, welfare, and the
state's tort laws -- the system under which an injured person may sue for damages.
During the 74th Legislature in 1995, he worked with the Democrats who controlled
both houses of the Texas legislature and managed to get bills passed that dealt with
the four issues he had emphasized in his campaign. Bush was seen as pro-business and
a consensus-builder.
Bush advocated and signed the two largest tax cuts to date in Texas history, totaling
over $3 billion. To pay for the cuts, he sought (unsuccessfully) federal approval of
a plan to privatize Texas' social services. Education reform was a priority
throughout his terms, with legislation emphasizing local control of schools, higher
standards, and a revised curriculum. Controversy has followed, with charter schools
mired in financial scandals and protests against one test determining a child's
promotion. After winning reelection in 1998, Bush began his bid for the presidency
and was not as involved in the 76th Legislature in 1999.
George W. Bush was born July 6, 1946 in New Haven, Connecticut and grew up in Midland
and Houston, Texas. He graduated from Andover Academy, and received a bachelor's
degree from Yale University and a master's from Harvard Business School. He served
as a pilot in the Texas Air National Guard. In 1978, Bush was defeated in a run for
the U.S. Congress in West Texas. He was involved in energy exploration from the
1970s into the 1980s. From 1989 until his election as governor, Bush worked with the
Texas Rangers baseball organization, leading a group of partners in purchasing the
team, and then serving as managing general partner. He married Laura Welch in 1977;
they have two daughters.

Scope and Contents of the Records
The Correspondence/Constituent Services Office was responsible for
preparing replies to many of the letters written to Texas Governor George W.
Bush's Office. Robos (robotype correspondence) research and background files
were created while developing and revising computer-generated form response
letters for topics that produced large volumes of mail in the Governor's
Office. Records are final versions and drafts of response letters and FAQs
(frequently asked questions), originals and copies of incoming letters (logged,
some unlogged) used as samples when crafting the response, news clippings,
press releases, speeches, printouts from Internet sites, emails, legislation,
bill analyses, yellow routing slips, green Robos forms (listing author of
letter, what division it belongs to in the Robos table of contents, main and
second subjects, etc.), notes, and memos, dating 1993-2000, bulk 1995-2000.
Subjects include border issues, child issues, economic development, education,
employees, environment, energy, federal issues, government issues, greetings,
health, insurance, military, social issues, state agency issues, student
letters, taxes, transportation, utilities, welfare, crime, legal issues,
budget, and legislative issues. There are also miscellaneous Robos and
mini-Robos files, which relate to issues of concern to a narrower constituency.
Shirley Green, head of the Correspondence/Constituent Services for most of
Governor Bush's tenure, made numerous comments regarding grammar and
procedures. Karen Hughes, Communications Director; Vance McMahan, Policy
Director; Margaret LaMontagne, Senior Advisor; and other Governor's Office
staff provided input on the content and revision of a number of the letters to
ensure they reflected the Governor's policies. A very few letters include
comments from Governor Bush (including topics such as capital punishment,
litigation, and Medicaid reform). Post-it notes have been photocopied onto
acid-free paper and then discarded. Folder titles were added by the archivist
based on alpha-numeric designations and topics assigned by Correspondence
staff, which had been noted on the top right-hand corner of materials.

in paper, the overall finding aid is found at a separate divider within the
binder.
Arrangement of the Records
These records are arranged alphabetically by broad issues, then
somewhat chronologically by more specific subjects within each broad issue, as
maintained by the Governor's Office. A letter of the alphabet was assigned by
the creating office to each broad issue (there are no files for Y), and then
numbers were assigned within for specific subjects as they arose. A group of
mini-Robos and miscellaneous Robos are filed first. Misfilings have been
corrected.

In December 2000, Governor George W. Bush designated the George Bush Presidential Library as
the repository for the records from his tenure as Governor of Texas, under
authority of Texas Government Code, Section 441.201. Shortly after he left
office, the records were shipped to the Bush Library in College Station, Texas.
Texas Attorney General John Cornyn ruled the records are state records subject
to the Texas Public Information Act and the management of the Texas State
Library and Archives Commission even after transfer to a federal facility
(Opinion No. JC-0498, May 3, 2002). In July 2002 the records were transferred
from the Bush Library to the Texas State Archives in Austin for preparation for
research use. In June 2003, a memorandum of understanding signed by
representatives of the National Archives and Records Administration, the Texas
State Library and Archives Commission, and George W. Bush replaced a January
2002 interim memorandum of understanding. The records were moved to the George
W. Bush Presidential Library in February 2013.
