About this listen

Evelyn Brooks is the Texas State Board of Education representative for District 14. Brooks is committed to making decisions for students that fulfill the mission, objectives, and goals of Texas public education. That mission is to ensure that all children have access to a quality education that is grounded in the preservation of the liberties and rights of citizens and is free from indoctrination. Host Jackie Besinger and Evelyn detail the information surrounding the controversy behind Lorena ISD, a district with a history that goes as far as ignoring parents, silencing parents, and more.

Evelyn Brooks is dedicated to safeguarding the innocence of children by meticulously advocating for conservative standards and selecting curriculum materials that resonate with the values of Texas families. Committed to amplifying the voices of her constituents in District 14, she aims to ensure that the unheard are finally acknowledged. Brooks eagerly anticipates collaborating with everyone in her district, the Texas State Board of Education, the Texas Commissioner of Education, and the Texas Education Agency to achieve these critical objectives. For her, prioritizing families and the educational needs of the 5.5 million Texas children is non-negotiable, and she remains steadfast in her commitment to her oath.


Brooks represents constituents from the following counties: Bosque, Clay, Comanche, Coryell, Eastland, Ellis, Erath, Hamilton, Hill, Jack, McLennan, Mills, Montague, Navarro, Palo Pinto, Wise, and parts of Dallas, Denton, and Johnson counties.
