AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 31 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO CHILD CARE SUBSIDIES TO INCREASE ELIGIBILITY THRESHOLDS OVER FIVE YEARS.
This Act temporarily addresses Delaware's childcare crisis by gradually increasing Purchase of Care eligibility from 200% to 275% FPL over 5 years starting July 1, 2026, reducing benefit cliffs and supporting moderate-income families. It includes a sunset clause expiring June 30, 2031, to allow evaluation and ensure fiscal sustainability, with annual reporting on impacts.
