To direct the Secretary of Veterans Affairs and the Secretary of Education to submit a report on the availability, accessibility, and affordability of childcare for veteran families.
HR 6026 requires the Secretaries of Veterans Affairs and Education to jointly submit a report to Congress within 180 days of enactment, focusing on childcare availability, accessibility, and affordability for veteran families. The report must assess current childcare options, identify gaps in services, and evaluate specific barriers like cost, geographic distance, and eligibility requirements. This procedural bill does not create new benefits or mandates but aims to gather data to inform future policy decisions for veteran families.
