PR 26-0454 Legislature · 26th Council Period (2025-2026)

Director of the Office of Veterans Affairs Julian Purdy Confirmation Resolution of 2025

This procedural resolution confirms Mayor Muriel Bowser's appointment of Julian Purdy as Director of the District of Columbia's Office of Veterans Affairs, as required by the Office of Veterans Affairs Establishment Act of 2001 (D.C. Law 14-28). It does not create new policy but formalizes Purdy's appointment, allowing him to assume the role effective immediately upon the Council's adoption. The resolution directly affects Purdy (a former U.S. Department of Labor policy official with veterans' service experience) and the Office of Veterans Affairs, which serves District veterans by managing benefits and support programs.
