this is not right decision
 

As a Virginia daycare provider, I am very concerned about the proposed EpiPen requirement. This change would significantly increase childcare costs for families, and I am also uncomfortable with non-medical staff like me being expected to administer such powerful medication. I respectfully request that the Town Hall reconsider this proposal. Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
