Woolley was the co-chair of the Tea Party caucus in the Texas House.[1] In 2011, Woolley was chosen to replace the Democrat Craig Eiland of Galveston as Speaker pro tempore after Republicans captured a super majority of seats (101 of 150) in the 2010 elections.[1]

Woolley owned property in the Stablewood subdivision in Houston and about 1994 had planned to build a house in the subdivision.[2]
