  Mr. GARAMENDI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Jennie Mojica, 
recognized as one of California's 8th Congressional District's Women of 
the Year. Jennie Mojica has made important contributions to the 
Filipino community in Vallejo and beyond. Ms. Mojica grew up in 
Vallejo, and while in high school, she created ``Phone Friends'' under 
the sponsorship of Filipino American Social Services, which was a 
hotline for elementary school-aged students. After earning her master's 
from Sacramento State University and a Project Management Certificate 
from Stanford, she joined Leadership Vallejo, where she now serves as a 
freelance consultant and senior project manager. Ms. Mojica played a 
central role in organizing Vallejo's largest free community festival, 
``Pista Sa Nayon,'' which celebrates the diversity of the Filipino 
community. On behalf of the people of California's 8th Congressional 
District, it is my pleasure to honor and recognize Jennie Mojica for 
her invaluable contributions to our community.
