About Our Speaker:
Shelly Boshart Davis, State Representative for District 15 (Albany, Tangent, Millersburg)
Mom, businesswoman, farmer, politician, activist
Shelly Boshart Davis is dedicated to strengthening Oregon’s agriculture, transportation, and rural communities. She runs her family’s trucking and custom farming operation, helping move Oregon-grown products around the world while advocating for the people who make that possible. In the legislature, she brings real-world experience to policy — fighting for working families, small businesses, and common-sense solutions that keep Oregon moving forward.

Now co-owner of Boshart Trucking, she specializes in agricultural drayage and international shipping. Shelly’s hands-on experience in agriculture and transportation drives her advocacy for rural communities and economic development, promoting policies that connect Oregon producers to global markets.
