  Ms. LOIS FRANKEL of Florida. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor 
Darcy J. Davis, a distinguished health care advocate, to congratulate 
her on being named to Florida's Top 100 Women-Led Businesses by the 
Commonwealth Institute of Florida. For more than 30 years, Darcy has 
empowered women by promoting gender equity and diversity within the 
health care system, and she is among the 15 percent of health care CEOs 
nationwide who are women.

  As CEO of the Health Care District of Palm Beach County, Darcy has 
ensured that the residents of our county have access to comprehensive 
primary care, specialty care, and dental services. The Health Care 
District serves such an important role in our community, often 
assisting those without insurance, and has administered over 200,000 
COVID-19 vaccinations throughout the pandemic.
  Darcy also serves our community as a member of the America's 
Essential Hospitals' Strategic Planning Committee, the United Way of 
Palm Beach County's Hunger Relief Advisory Council, and the County's 
Sober Home Task Force. She has received several other awards and has 
been honored by the Palm Beach County Medical Society as a ``Hero in 
Medicine''.
  Darcy's dedication to health care access and her service to the 
people of South Florida is truly admirable. I am proud to celebrate her 
today and wish her continued success.
