The resolution highlights Churchill's extensive community involvement, including her work as a leading advocate for LGBTQIA+ rights, her role in legislative efforts to advance social equity (such as establishing gender-neutral bathroom policies and non-binary driver's license options), and her professional and public service roles. These included serving on the board of Northwest Fiberworx, working as a data collector for the 2020 U.S. Census, serving as a zoning official and American Rescue Plan manager in Bakersfield, and being selected for the Vermont Commission on Women.

The document concludes by extending condolences to her family and directing the Secretary of State to send copies of the resolution to her family, the Bakersfield Town Clerk, and the Vermont Commission on Women.
