AG Proposal
 

This proposal needs to be reconsidered for several reasons. To name just a few:

1.  The AG rate is already  underfunded

2.  The excessive regulations that the State has place on ALF's will only add to the financial crisis these facilities are already facing

3.  This proposal will continue to over burdent the small business struggling to stay open in this present economic crisis

4.  This proposal is unfair to anyone who wishes to move to the state or to return to their birth state

Presently, Assisted Living Facilities's have to meet greater regulations there ever in the history of our business. While regulations aren't necessarily a bad thing, but imposing regulations without funding them is just plain wrong and punitive to small business.    This proposal needs to be stopped ASAP.
