Commission on Health Equity Linda Elam Confirmation Resolution of 2024

This resolution confirms the reappointment of Dr. Linda Elam as a voting member of the District of Columbia's Commission on Health Equity. Dr. Elam, who represents Ward 5, will serve on the commission until February 1, 2026, bringing her expertise in social and human services and vulnerable populations to the body. The commission works to address health disparities and promote equity across the district, though this specific bill only handles the administrative confirmation of a member rather than creating new health policies. The resolution takes effect immediately and requires the Council to send a copy to both Dr. Elam and the Mayor.
