Thursday, October 1, 2026
Mr. GARAMENDI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the contributions of Christine Dean as she is honored as one of California's 8th Congressional District's Women of the Year. Christine has dedicated decades to serving the Martinez community through civic, historical, public-safety, and remembrance efforts. A longtime member of the Martinez Historical Society Board, Christine has successfully chaired its popular Home Tour, coordinating homeowners, sponsors, and volunteers. She has also supported Martinez's national Night Out for many years, helping strengthen police-community relationships and neighborhood connections.
stewardship of the Yuba City Bus Tragedy Remembrance Ceremony, a profound event honoring the 28 children and their teacher who passed away in 1976. She has organized remembrance ceremonies for nearly 50 years, ensuring that families, first responders, survivors, and community members have a place to gather and reflect. Christine's lifelong commitment to Martinez reflects exceptional compassion, leadership, and dedication to preserving history, strengthening community, and honoring those who have shaped it. On behalf of the people of California's 8th Congressional District, it is my pleasure to honor and recognize Christine Dean for her positive contributions to our community.
