Child
Care Development Block Grant (CCDBG)
In March the House passed a bill
reauthorizing CCDBG and TANF, but the Senate still needs to take
action. The proposal in the Senate includes a $1 billion increase
in CCDBG over 5 years, which is not enough to maintain current service
levels for the next 5 years. However, Sen. Snowe (Maine) has promised
to propose an amendment to increase this to $5-6 billion. No action
is expected from the Senate until next year.
