Board of Social Work Angela Hardiman Confirmation Resolution of 2025

This bill is a confirmation resolution for Mayor Muriel Bowser's nomination of Angela Hardiman to serve on the District of Columbia Board of Social Work. It formally confirms her appointment to fill a vacant seat previously held by Marjan Shallal, with the term ending March 3, 2028. The resolution follows standard District procedures under the Confirmation Act of 1978 and the Health Occupations Revision Act, requiring Council approval for the appointment. This is a routine procedural step to confirm a nominee, not a policy change affecting broader legislation or public services.

MODERATE

The document was converted from a Mayor's nomination letter to an official Council resolution, changing the format from a letter to a formal legislative text. The substantive policy change involves the appointment term for Angela Hardiman, which was updated from 'filling a vacant seat formerly held by Marjan Shallal' to a direct term ending March 3, 2028, while removing the specific reference to the predecessor. The extensive biographical resume included in the original letter was removed from the final resolution text.

Scope change

The document's scope shifted from a nomination letter with attached biographical data to a standalone resolution text containing only the appointment details.

TECHNICAL

Removed the full biographical resume and career history of the nominee, which was included in the original letter but is not part of the final resolution text.

Added formal resolution headers, section numbers, and the 'Enrolled Original' status to convert the document into official legislative text.

Removed the signature block and contact information for the Mayor's office that was present in the nomination letter.

TIMELINE

Changed the appointment description from 'filling a vacant seat formerly held by Marjan Shallal' to a direct term ending March 3, 2028, removing the specific reference to the predecessor.
