Comments
This bill is necessary to clarify the process of designating a community action agency and rescinding such designation. The bill is supported by the Virginia Department of Social Services and by the community action network in Virginia, and I am not aware of any opposition to this bill. Delegate Spruill, the bill's patron, is one of the most thoughtful and effective legislators in the House.
