On April 6, 2026, the House Committee on Education and Workforce reported eight bills related to the administration of federal childcare programs. This document provides estimates for four of those bills. Each bill would affect the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) and Child Care Entitlement to States (CCES) programs by amending the Child Care and Development Block Grant Act of 2014 to increase enforcement actions for noncompliance and improper payments and to require states to report additional information to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
