Eliminate a sunset date for the federal Child Care Subsidy program and state intent regarding funding

Complete·4/17/26

Nebraska LB304 removes the sunset date for the federal Child Care Subsidy program and expresses state intent regarding funding.

Nebraska LB304 amends the federal Child Care Subsidy program by eliminating its sunset date, ensuring its continuation beyond its original expiration. The bill also expresses the state's intent to use available funds for the program, including funds from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program, without using General Funds beyond administrative costs. The legislation emphasizes the importance of child care assistance for families with incomes up to certain federal poverty levels and mandates an independent evaluation of income eligibility changes.
