Alexandria is a vibrant city based on history, culture, a waterfront and lots of tourism. If Virginia has money and space to build an arena then you have money and space to build new schools. Our school system is deplorable. It’s overcrowded. Think of your citizens before thinking about your quick money grab that eventually leads to an inevitable loss. We don’t want or need an arena. This is pure greed.

I am a legal guardian and the President of CVTC Families and Friends . I oppose HB515 as written, although Delegate Hope's Legislative Aide has informed me that there will be an amended version. The unamended version conflicts with a number of state and federal laws and regulations and the Supreme Court's Olmstead ruling. Furthermore, forced discharges from training centers would also violate the state's settlement agreement with the DOJ, which is still in force. (From Judge Gibney's final ruling on the settlement: “no resident of a Training Center shall be discharged from a Training Center to a setting other than a Training Center if he or his Authorized Representative chooses to continue receiving services in a Training Center.”) Furthermore, the Virginia Code definition of "guardian" states that guardians are responsible for making residential decisions. A number of individuals were forcibly removed from CVTC's nursing facility to Hiram Davis Medical Center, and they may also be at risk, absent a language amendment, as Hiram Davis is associated with, and is on the grounds of, Central State Hospital. Please amend the bill's language to specifically exclude training centers and Hiram Davis Medical center, or oppose the bill.

HB 515 This proposed change is apparently intended to permit DBHD bureaucrats to discharge patients with 15 days’ notice and without parental consent. Parental consent for Medicaid patients is required in the earlier language of section 3.C. This creates an ambiguity through which the Department can act until a court issues an injunction, which is not likely to happen in 15 days. There is no other reasonable explanation for this proposed change. It is my opinion that this is a sneaky bureaucrat-generated attempt to create a loophole to remove the powerful guardian consent limitation on their personal power. Most of the patients in State hospitals and training centers are of color (including my daughter). This amendment is clearly targeted at empowering the Department bureaucrats to discharge most of them on very short notice and over the objections of their families and guardians. The proposed change contradicts the long-existing language at lines 25-27. That right is protected by US Supreme Court case Olmstead v. L.C. (and settlement we had with Commonwealth in United States Court Western District of Virginia; attached.). This is bill is extreme and inhumane and negatively targets minority disabled population.
