Russell B. Cummings

Russell Bennett Cummings (October 6, 1925 – April 18, 2008) was a Democratic member of the Texas House of Representatives from District 22 in Harris County from 1967 to 1971,〔Texas Library and Archives, Austin, Texas, 512-463-5455〕 who is best known for having worked for passage of the state's open meetings and open beaches laws. He lost his bid for a third term in the 1970 general election to Republican A. Sidney Bowers, III. According to the ''Houston Chronicle'', Cummings was a "Democrat living in a Republican-leaning district. () his "legislative record was conservative enough to have satisfied conservative Republicans."〔http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/deaths/5719334.html〕
In that same election, Republican U.S. Representative George H. W. Bush lost his celebrated race against Lloyd Bentsen, for the United States Senate seat vacated by Ralph W. Yarborough, whom Bentsen had defeated in the Democratic primary.
==Legislative record==

In addition to his open meetings and beaches legislation, Cummings procured the passage of legislation to allow public school districts to provide taxpayer-funded kindergartens. He fell short in his attempt to provide a life sentence without parole for certain violent crimes committed with a firearm.〔 Cummings obtained passage of a bill supported by the interest group, the Texas Nurses Association, which formalized professional practices. He obtained the first "work release program that authorized non-violent criminals to work outdoors, a measured supported by the Texas Fish Farmers Association. Cummings served on the House Appropriations, Parks and Wildlife, Transportation, House Administration, and Penitentiary committees. He was vice chairman of the Public Education Committee. His legislative tenure corresponded with the first two terms of Governor John Connally.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Russell Bennett Cummings )
