An Inventory of Senator Ray Farabee Records at the Texas State Archives, 1975-1988
Title: Senator Ray Farabee records
Abstract: The Texas Senate is one arm of the Legislature of the State of Texas (the other being the Texas House of Representatives), which the Texas Constitution (Article III, Section I) vests with all legislative power of the state. Texas Senator Ray Farabee's records document his representation of Senate District 30 (1975-1988) through his legislative activities and general office operations. Records include correspondence, news clippings, publications (including reports and pamphlets), newsletters to constituents, briefing notebooks, manuals, bill summaries, maps, charts, and other background materials. Records date 1975-1988. Subjects include business and commerce, activities of financial institutions, government operations and appropriations, health care, alcohol and drug use, elections, education, the justice system, family issues, environmental issues, agriculture, property rights and zoning issues, taxation, public safety, employment and labor issues, utilities, and achievements in Farabee's district.
In addition to legislative powers, the legislature exercises other types of authority. Constituent powers include the ability to alter the state constitution and the members' authority to exercise powers of attorney in behalf of their constituents. Directory and supervisory powers allow the legislature to regulate the state's administrative machinery, made up of boards, commissions, and departments that conduct the affairs of state. The legislature establishes and funds these bodies and defines their functions. Executive powers of each house include selection of legislative officers, employees, and chairs and members of committees. Investigative powers are exercised through the formation of standing, special, interim, and joint committees to study an issue. Senate committees are usually charged with a particular purpose by the lieutenant governor, although this may also be accomplished by a resolution adopted by the senate. Each legislative house holds judicial powers over its members, including punishing or expelling members for cause.
The senate functions through committees set up under its own rules. By custom the president of the senate appoints standing, special, and conference committees, although the senate is free to designate its own method of selection. Under the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1961, the committee system was expanded, and provisions were made whereby standing, special, and general investigating committees created by each body could function whether or not the legislature was in session. The senate has 14 standing committees: Administration; Agriculture, Water, and Rural Affairs; Business and Commerce; Criminal Justice; Education; Finance; Health and Human Services; Higher Education; Intergovernmental Relations; Natural Resources and Economic Development; Nominations; State Affairs; Transportation; and Veterans Affairs and Border Security.

Texas Senator Kenneth Ray Farabee, a Democrat from Wichita Falls, served from the 64th (1975) through the 69th Texas Legislature (1985) and part of the 70th (1987-1988) Texas Legislature. Known as Ray Farabee, the senator represented Senate District 30, which consisted of Archer, Baylor, Callahan, Childress, Clay, Cooke, Cottle, Denton, Dickens, Fisher, Floyd, Foard, Grayson, Hardeman, Haskell, Jack, Jones, Kent, King, Knox, Mitchell, Montague, Motley, Scurry, Shackleford, Stonewall, Throckmorton, Wichita, Wilbarger, and Young Counties when Farabee left office in 1988.
Farabee was born in 1932 in Wichita Falls. After graduating from Wichita Falls High School in 1952, he earned a bachelor of business administration from the University of Texas. During his studies, Farabee served as freshman class president and then student body president. While at a National Student Association event, he met University of Wisconsin student body president Helen Jane Rehbein. In 1958, Ray and Helen married after their respective graduations. Farabee later graduated with a Juris Doctor degree from the University of Texas School of Law in 1961.
After Ray Farabee served in the United States Air Force, the Farabees settled in Wichita Falls, where he began his law practice. In the 1974 Democratic Primary, Farabee defeated political veteran State Representative Charles Finnell for Senate District 30. Farabee later won the general election. The senator's major committee service included the Finance (1975-1988 as a member), Jurisprudence (1975-1983 as a member), and State Affairs (1981-1988 as a member and chair) Committees. Influenced by his wife's advocacy for mental health, Farabee sponsored many bills related to this topic as well as health and human services, juvenile justice issues, and public school reform. In 1988, he resigned to become general counsel for the University of Texas system, where he remained until his retirement in 2000.
Helen Farabee died on July 28, 1988. In 1991, Ray married Austin civics leader Mary Margaret Albright. Ray died on November 20, 2014. One of Ray and Helen Farabee's two sons, David, served in the Texas House of Representatives from 1999 to 2011.
