The proposed bill establishes the "Michigan National Guard Child Care Assistance Act," which aims to create a child care assistance program specifically for eligible members of the Michigan National Guard. The program will be administered by the adjutant general within the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs. Eligible members, defined as those in active service who are not absent without leave or facing military justice charges, can apply for assistance. The adjutant general will approve applications based on the availability of funds and specific criteria, such as whether the member is a single parent or if their spouse is also an eligible member.

The bill outlines that approved eligible members will receive a stipend for child care assistance, with the amount determined annually by the adjutant general. This assistance is intended to cover child care for up to 12 hours a day during weekend drills and annual training, with a maximum number of days specified each year. Additionally, the adjutant general is granted the authority to promulgate rules necessary for the implementation of the act under the administrative procedures act. The act will only take effect if certain related bills from the 103rd Legislature are also enacted into law.
