Biographical Sketch

Texas State Representative and Senator Chet Brooks was born on August 18, 1935. He attended San Angelo College, San Jacinto College, received his BA from the University of Texas in journalism and political science, and then attended the University of Houston. He worked as a newspaperman for the Houston Post and as a businessman. Brooks served in the Texas House of Representatives on behalf of Harris County from 1962 to 1966. In 1967 he began serving in the Texas Senate, again on behalf of Harris County (though his district eventually became District 11, parts of Galveston and Harris counties), where he remained through 1992. During his tenure in the Senate, Brooks served on a variety of committees, including those of Finance, Education, State Affairs and its Subcommittee on Nominations, and Special Committees on Nominations, Administration, and Rules. In addition, he chaired the Committee on Human Resources/Health and Human Resources/Health and Human Services (from at least 1977 to 1992), vice-chaired the Special Committee on Administration (1987-1992), and chaired the Special Committee of the Whole on Redistricting (1991-1992). He also served on the Legislative Budget Board, the Texas Coordinating Commission for State Health and Welfare Services, the Ad Hoc Committee on Federal Block Grants, the Joint Committee to Study the Needs of Autistic Citizens, and was President Pro Tempore of the Senate in 1972.

Scope and Contents of the Records

Records consist of correspondence, memoranda, reports, minutes, agenda, legislative bills, bill analyses, publications, newsletters, printed material, fiscal notes, legislative records, clippings, press releases, testimony, presentation materials, legal memoranda, maps, statements, photographs, brochures, invitations, drafts, notes, proclamations, blue line drawings, speeches, and audio cassettes ranging in date from 1966 to 1990 (bulk 1975-1989) that document the activities and interests of Chet Brooks during his tenure in the Texas Senate. Bill files include legislation on child care, regulation of various professions (particularly medical), mass-transit, home equity lending, health care, taxes, public smoking, motor vehicle regulation, judicial elections, 911 emergency number, nursing homes, health insurance, blood banks, infectious waste, peer review liability, child health, radioactive waste disposal sites, and education. Correspondence passed between Senator Brooks, various state and local officials, constituents, and the general public. Much of the correspondence regards issues and topics addressed by or falling under the purview of Brooks as the Chair of the Senate Committee on Human Resources; such subjects include redistricting, nursing homes, child support, seat-belts, appropriations, education, medical care and research, insurance, and health and safety. Committee files document Senator Brooks' work as: chair of the Senate Joint Committee on Educational Services to the Deaf in 1978 (to promote the economical delivery of educational services to the deaf provided by the state governmental educational institutions by means of a comprehensive review of governmental structure); chair of the Senate Ad-Hoc Committee on Standardized Medical Procedures in 1979 (established to determine and standardize the services offered by various medical personnel); and 1988 chair of the Texas Task Force on Waste Management Policy (focusing on hazardous wastes). Inmate correspondence contains letters written by inmates requesting recommendations for parole hearings, entrance into rehabilitation facilities/halfway houses, and for assistance in obtaining or changing medical care, dentures, better food, disciplinary charges, education, work assignments, and resolving other assorted complaints. Senator Brooks and his staff responded to each of these letters, though they were unable to help some individuals and found it inappropriate to interfere in other cases. General office files, a few subject files, and assorted correspondence comprise the final series.

To prepare this inventory, the described materials were cursorily reviewed to delineate series, to confirm the accuracy of contents lists, to provide an estimate of dates covered, and to determine record types.
