S.J.Res. 199

A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Health and Human Services relating to "Restoring Flexibility in the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF)".

Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee · Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA)

The joint resolution would reject a Department of Health and Human Services rule that aimed to increase flexibility in how states use federal child care funding under the Child Care and Development Fund. By invoking congressional disapproval powers, it would prevent the regulation from taking effect.[AI-Generated]
