Auxiliary Grant Proposals
 

 I would like to comment on the proposed 90 day waiting period for qualified individuals who move into Virginia from other states.  I find this proposal unfair to all persons wishing to live in Virginia as well as all the homes who depend on this income to care for the indigent elderly.  The A.G. rate is sorely underfunded as is and the homes who care for these individuals are already dealing with unfunded and overly burdensome regulations.  This will be one more major hit to an already beaten and bruised acommunity of homes who care for the poorest of the poor.  Please reconsider this proposal and stop this action before homes in this area suffer even more.
