Child Safety and Well-Being Act of 2026
The Child Safety and Well-Being Act of 2026 establishes a new federal Children's Commission to advocate for the interests of all children and specifically marginalized youth, including foster care recipients and those facing systemic barriers. This 15-member commission, appointed by the Comptroller General, will conduct research, review federal regulations, and issue reports to ensure that child well-being is considered in government policies and legislation. The bill also creates a Children's Commissioner to lead the commission and requires agencies to share relevant data, while authorizing $7.5 million annually from 2027 through 2034 to fund these operations.
