Summary

The bill expands eligibility for the state's Purchase of Care child‑care subsidy, allowing families with higher incomes to qualify. It phases the entry threshold from 225% to 275% of the Federal Poverty Level between 2026 and 2031 and adds temporary higher caps for families who lose eligibility. A sunset provision ends the changes in 2032 unless the legislature renews them.
