This bill amends the Child Care Licensing Act by modifying 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, effectively replacing it with the newly amended language. This legislative change aims to streamline regulations for child care services associated with federal programs, thereby potentially easing the burden on military families and ensuring that child care options are more accessible in these contexts.
