More Child Care and Jobs for Military Families Act
This bill requires the Department of Defense to report on at-home child care programs for military families, including program changes and challenges military spouses face with licensing or relocation. It also mandates a feasibility study to standardize licensing requirements, remove barriers to program expansion, and support military spouse employment in these roles. The report and study must be submitted to congressional committees within 39 months and 180 days after the report, respectively. The bill directly affects military spouses seeking child care employment by addressing systemic hurdles in accessing these jobs.
