Stop Child Care Funding Fraud Act of 2026 aims to enhance transparency and accountability in federal child care funds.
The Stop Child Care Funding Fraud Act of 2026 amends the Child Care and Development Block Grant Act of 1990 to require states to report on the rate of improper payments and outline corrective actions. If a state's improper payment rate exceeds 6%, it must submit a corrective action plan. The Secretary of Health and Human Services can reduce funding based on the rate: 5% reduction for rates between 6-8%, 10% for rates between 8-10%, and 15% for rates at or above 10%. The act takes effect one year after enactment.
