Office and district
Tracie Davis represents Florida Senate District 5 as a Democrat. The Senate describes the district as part of Duval County. Her district office is in Jacksonville, and her Capitol office is in Tallahassee. The Florida Senate’s official member page identifies Davis as a sitting senator for the 2024–2026 term and lists her public email and office phone numbers. These contact details are presented for constituent use and do not establish a personal residence. S1
Davis served in the Florida House of Representatives from 2016 through 2022 and was elected to the Senate in 2022, according to the official biography. The move from the House to the Senate changed the chamber in which she serves while keeping her in state legislative office. The Senate page records her reelection and current district assignment. This chronology is the basis for the current biography; it avoids blending state legislative work with separate personal or professional details. S1
Jacksonville roots and education
The Senate biography lists Davis as born in Jacksonville. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from Edward Waters University in 1994, graduating magna cum laude, and a Master of Education in Educational Leadership from the University of North Florida in 2001. The degrees provide a clear public record of preparation in education and school leadership. Her Senate profile lists her occupation as El-Cart Staffing Solutions; it does not provide a more detailed account of that organization’s structure or her specific day-to-day duties. S1
Her professional background and educational degrees are kept distinct here. The profile does not identify a specific school or classroom assignment, so this draft does not state that she held a particular teaching post. It also does not infer that an education degree determines her approach to education legislation. For a detailed career biography, additional official records would be needed to describe positions and dates beyond what the Senate page publishes. S1
Legislative service and committee assignments
Davis’s current Senate service follows six years in the Florida House. Her 2024–2026 Senate assignments include vice chair of the Appropriations Committee on Health and Human Services and membership on the Appropriations Committee on Higher Education, Commerce and Tourism, Education Pre-K–12, Fiscal Policy, Health Policy, Rules, Transportation and the Joint Legislative Auditing Committee. The portfolio brings together education, health services, transportation and budget matters. The Senate page is the authoritative source for the current titles and should be checked when committee assignments change. S1
A vice chair title identifies a leadership responsibility within a specific committee, not a Senate-wide leadership office. The committee list also does not specify a senator’s position on each policy. A voter or reader seeking a particular policy record should consult the relevant bill page, committee vote, floor vote, hearing transcript or official statement. This profile records the assignments but does not extrapolate a voting record from them. S2
Public statements and recognitions
The Senate media section lists Davis’s periodic “Davis Report” updates from the 2024 session. The page also identifies a bill introduced for 2027, Senate Bill 40, a relief measure involving the Department of Children and Families, filed August 7, 2026. Those are traceable official items. The filing entry is not evidence that the bill passed or became law, so the biography describes it only as an introduced measure. S1
The Senate profile lists recognitions from the Coalition of Black Trade Unionists, Independent Colleges and Universities, ALCAM, the Florida Health Care Association, the Florida Education Association and Big Brothers Big Sisters. It also records affiliations with Alpha Kappa Alpha, Leadership Jacksonville, the Democratic Women Information Network, Jacksonville Women Network, Pace Center for Girls Jacksonville and Jacksonville Arts and Music School. These are attributed to the Senate page and are not presented as organizational endorsements or as a substitute for a legislative record. S1
Current status
The official Senate page identifies Davis as the current senator for District 5 and lists her committee assignments for the 2024–2026 term. The next regular election date was not verified from the member profile; it should be checked from official election materials before the site publishes a future-facing election note. The office email, Jacksonville address and Tallahassee contact number are publicly listed. No portrait is cleared for hosting by this draft. S1
Reading the public record
The Florida Senate’s official member page is the primary source for this entry. It identifies the senator, party, district, committee assignments, legislative service, public biography, and a public contact route. The current page is labeled for the 2024–2026 Senate term. It is a snapshot of the Legislature’s own roster and should be checked again when the next term begins. This biography uses the page’s distinctions between present service, earlier legislative offices, professional background, community affiliations, and awards. Where the source gives only a year or a title, this profile does not manufacture a more precise date or imply duties beyond what the source states. S1
Committee membership indicates where a senator serves; it does not, by itself, establish a policy position or a vote. A chair or vice chair title likewise describes a committee role rather than proving that the member personally authored every action taken by that committee. Any discussion of a specific bill or public position should be supported by the bill’s official history, a recorded vote, a hearing record, or a statement issued by the senator. This draft therefore reports concrete public actions only where the official Senate page provides a verifiable item, and otherwise leaves issue-level claims out. S2
The district description comes from the Senate’s official district section. It is a geographic summary, not a claim that every community in the district shares the same interests. The listed district office is a public constituent contact point and should not be confused with a personal residence. This biography includes family and recreational details only when they appear in the official legislative biography; it adds no private-life claims. S1
The Senate profile includes an official portrait, but an official government website does not automatically establish an open license for reuse. The photo register remains separate, and no image is cleared for hosting by this biography. Officeholder status and the next election must be refreshed from official sources before publication. This is an offline draft for the requested C-1b batch and is not approval to publish or deploy.
