Brooks County Court unanimously backs state bills to boost rural EMS funding
Summary
Brooks County Commissioners unanimously approved a resolution March 26 supporting Senate Bill 1377 and House Bill 3000, measures described by the court as providing critical funding for rural emergency medical services; the vote was 5-0.
Brooks County Judge Eric Ramos read a resolution into the record March 26 that the court said was in support of Senate Bill 1377 and House Bill 3000, which the commissioners described as providing critical funding for rural emergency medical services. Commissioner Eduardo "Eddie" Garza moved to approve the resolution; Commissioner Nora Salinas seconded. The motion passed by a unanimous roll-call vote (Yes = 5).
The court did not publish the resolution text in the meeting minutes; the transcript records only that Judge Ramos "read resolution in open Court." The commissioners framed the action as a formal expression of the county’s support for the two bills as they move through the Texas Legislature. No fiscal commitment by the county was recorded in the minutes, and no public comment on the resolution was included.
