HONORING JUDGE TERRYE DAVIS AS ONE OF CALIFORNIA'S 8TH CONGRESSIONAL
DISTRICT'S WOMEN OF THE YEAR
_____
HON. JOHN GARAMENDI
of california
in the house of representatives
Tuesday, October 21, 2025
Mr. GARAMENDI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Judge Terrye Davis,
a distinguished leader and trailblazer, as one of California's 8th
Congressional District's Women of the Year. Her visionary leadership
and lifelong commitment to service have strengthened the fabric of
Solano County for decades. Judge Davis began her career as the Founding
Director of the Solano College Small Business Development Center, where
she empowered entrepreneurs and expanded pathways to economic
opportunity across our region. She later served as Executive Director
of the Continentals of Omega Boys and Girls Club, where under her
guidance the organization's budget grew more than fivefold, allowing
countless young people to access a safe and supportive environment to
learn, grow, and thrive. Today, Judge Davis serves with distinction on
the Solano County Superior Court, where she presides over juvenile
justice and dependency cases. In this critical role, she brings
compassion, integrity, and structure to some of our community's most
vulnerable youth, offering not just legal judgment but also hope and a
path forward. Her dedication to public service extends well beyond the
courtroom. She has contributed her leadership to the Sutter Solano
Medical Center, the City of Vallejo Human Relations Commission, the
Mare Island Reuse Advisory Committee, and the Board of Trustees at her
local church. Judge Davis's journey is a testament to courage and
purpose. Leaving behind a successful nonprofit career to pursue her
dream of becoming an attorney, she graduated from UC Hastings and rose
to the bench, proving that it's never too late to follow one's calling.
On behalf of the people of California's 8th Congressional District, I
am proud to recognize and honor Judge Terrye Davis for her
extraordinary contributions to our community.
