Summary

The bill creates new rules that cap how much a family can be charged for child‑care copayments, tying the limit to a percentage of family income and eliminating copayments for families below 150% of the poverty line. It also revises the amounts the state allocates for direct child‑care services and licensing for several fiscal years, and adds $22.9 million to child‑care subsidy funding for FY 2025‑26 and FY 2026‑27. The changes aim to make child‑care more affordable for low‑ and moderate‑income families.
