Dear TWC Open Records Coordinator,
This is a Texas Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from your state agency in Austin a copy of any and all written communications, including e-mail communications or letters or memoranda or advisory opinions, between or among Texas Workforce Commission state agency employees or officials at any time since 8 a.m. August 14, 2014, in which one or more TWC officials or TWC work supervisors or TWC attorneys in Austin have stated in writing that the Office of the Ombudsman of the TWC, or any other cited office or division or official or attorney of the TWC, is given permission by your state agency to, or is officially authorized by the TWC to, either impose an automatic block on one or more of the expected future incoming e-mails from myself, John Kevin McMillan of northwest Austin, or to automatically discard as "spam" one or more of the expected future e-mails from myself to any particular cited office or division or official of the TWC.
Included in the scope of this public-information request is the following (below) quoted text of a 2014 intra-agency written reply note that Texas Workforce Commission state agency General Counsel Paul N. Jones wrote and sent to TWC Civil Rights Division Director Lowell A. Keig.
The cited legal document was released to me in response to a March 2015 public-information request that I submitted to the TWC. According to online records for Mr. Keig, he is also cited as having served as the chair of the Health Law Section of the Austin Bar Association.
"From: Jones, Paul N (the TWC state agency General Counsel, with an official E-mail address of: "paul.jones@twc.state.tx.us")
"Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2014 12:30 PM

This public-information request is prompted in part by a December 13, 2017, e-mail Open Records response (below) I received from your state agency in Austin which stated that your agency's Office of the Ombudsman did not have any applicable documents generated by that TWC office which referred at least once to myself, John Kevin McMillan of northwest Austin.
The following contains some of my e-mail correspondence with your state agency on that:
"On Wednesday, December 13, 2017 10:51 PM, John McMillan
"Dear Ms. Chastain at your Austin-based Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) state agency with legal authority over many of the sexual-harassment cases and many of the other civil-rights violations cases that each involve alleged violations of the civil rights of Texan apartment tenants or alleged violations of the civil rights of gainfully-employed persons at their workplace in Texas,
"This is to confirm your very succinct December 13, 2017-dated e-mail reply letter (below), stating that you have no record of any documents generated by your TWC Ombudsman at any time since August 1, 2001, that refer in any manner to myself, John Kevin McMillan of northwest Austin.
"I am resident of Austin District 10.
"I am very surprised and disappointed by your 'no documents' reply to me on this, particularly since I have written and sent e-mail letters of complaint to the TWC Ombudsman in Austin on dozens of occasions in the last several years.
"Sincerely and Best Wishes,
"John Kevin McMillan, a gainfully employed single adult white gentleman and former full-time employee in Austin of the 'Texas Department of Public Safety' state agency.

"Dear Public Information Coordinator for the Texas Workforce Commission state agency in Austin, Texas,
"This is a Texas Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from your State Government of Texas agency a copy of any and all written communications, including e-mails and memoranda, that at any time since August 1, 2001, were generated or written or typed or sent or e-mailed or forwarded or mailed or FAXed by any official or staff member of your state agency's Office of the Ombudsman, and that, in each such case, referred at least once in any way to myself, John Kevin McMillan of northwest Austin...."
My legal name is John Kevin McMillan. My date of birth is April 27, 1957. I am a native of Lincoln, Nebraska.
I have most recently resided in Austin proper on a continuous and uninterrupted basis ever since mid-March 1997.
I am gainfully employed and the founder and only approved current member of a new and non-Christian religion, the "Progressive Prohibitionist Religion," that has very stringent membership-eligibility requirements. In the late 1990s and in 2000, I gave several televised speeches about that fully independent and new religion of mine on local community-access television in Austin.
My e-mail address throughout the applicable multi-year time period of this public-information request is: mcmillanj@att.net. I have maintained and paid for a personal landline phone number for myself of (512) 342-2295 throughout the entire multi-year time period applicable to this public-information request.
In the applicable time period ever since August 24, 2014, I have resided as a rent-paying tenant or rent-paying occupant in the following respective rental apartment units:
---Wind River Crossing Apartments, 11411 Research Boulevard, Building 3, Apartment 325, Austin, TX 78759;
---Crossland Economy Studios (an Extended Stay America rental-housing complex), 12621 Hymeadow Road, Apartment 133, Austin, TX 78729;
