This resolution concerns the confirmation of Roberta Bell to serve on the Maternal Mortality Review Committee (MMRC) in Washington, D.C. Nominated by Mayor Muriel Bowser, Ms. Bell would fill a vacant seat with an unexpired term ending January 10, 2028, representing a member with experience in obstetrics and gynecology from a District of Columbia hospital or birthing center. Bell is a retired clinical nurse with extensive professional experience in maternal and child health nursing, holding degrees from Paine College, the Medical College of Georgia, and Howard University. She has a strong background in healthcare leadership, having worked at Howard University Hospital and been involved in various professional nursing organizations. Her nomination is supported by her extensive professional credentials, community involvement, and multiple awards in nursing, including recognition from the District of Columbia Nurses Association. The resolution includes a legal sufficiency review by the Office of the General Counsel to the Mayor, which found the nomination legally unobjectionable, thus recommending Bell's appointment to the MMRC.
