Rohulamin “Rohul” Quander Memorial Recognition Resolution of 2025

This ceremonial resolution (CER 26-0081) honors Judge Rohulamin "Rohul" Quander, a DC native, Howard University alumnus, and former Senior Administrative Law Judge, for his lifelong contributions to public service, African American historical preservation, and education. It specifically recognizes his founding of the Quander Historical and Educational Society, his scholarship on the Quander family (one of the oldest African American lineages in the U.S.), and his work with The League of Enslaved Mount Vernon Descendants. The resolution formally expresses the Council of the District of Columbia's appreciation for his legacy and condolences to his family. It has no policy impact or direct effect on residents, as it is purely commemorative.
