This bill amends the Child Care Licensing Act by revising section 71-1910 of the Revised Statutes Cumulative Supplement, 2024. The key change is the exemption of certain federal programs from child care licensing requirements. Specifically, the bill clarifies that programs operating on military bases or federal property, as well as facilities licensed as family child care providers by the United States Department of Defense or the United States Coast Guard, are not subject to the licensing requirements that typically apply to child care services.
Additionally, the bill repeals the original section 71-1910, thereby streamlining the legal framework surrounding child care licensing in Nebraska. The amendments aim to provide clarity and flexibility for child care services associated with federal programs, ensuring that they are not hindered by state licensing regulations that may not be applicable in these contexts.
